Lea: I don’t spend any money on computer games because my dad’s got a computer
shop. My sister and I get some free games. I think I spend most of my money on
jeans and T-Shirts. Jeans are so expensive! I use my mobile a lot, too, so I buy a lot
of top-up cards. But I spend more on magazines than on top-up cards. I buy sweets
every week, but I don’t buy many. I spend more of my pocket money for comics, but
I don’t buy a comic every week. Comics aren’t high on my list. I spend much more
on sweets.

Daniel: I saw the list for the top seven in Britain, and I made my own ‘top seven’ list. I did it
over six month because, of course, some month I don’t buy any computer games or
top-up cards. I found that I spent most on computer games. I love them! My
favourite is a game where you’re a driver. You spend money and you get money in
the game. Sometimes you crash! Well, then I found that I bought a lot of sweets in
those six month! Bit I didn’t spend so much on drinks. That’s because I didn’t often
go to the snack bar. I never buy any clothes. My mum and dad buy them. They say
I’m too young, and that I can’t choose my own clothes. I think that’s silly, but parents
are like that. I sometimes buy a magazine, but I spend more on top-up cards. I
phone my parents when I’m going to be late at home.

The story of my parents        
I'm Gita and in my family we eat food from a lot of different countries. My mum’s parents came to England from India many years ago, but they still cook a lot of Indian food. My grandma likes English food, but she still cooks Indian food because my granddad likes Indian food best. Her lamb curry is the best curry in London! And she makes a great rice pudding.
My dad is from London. He hates spicy food like curries – his favourite food is chicken and chips.
There’s a little family story about that. My mum came into my dad’s computer shop one day. It was before they were married. He thought she was very nice and wanted to invite her for lunch. She said, “Let’s go to the "Delhi Palace". It’s the nearest restaurant, and I haven’t got a lot of time.”
He wasn’t very happy but he went there. He looked at the menu, but there was only curry – curry with vegetables, with lamb or with chicken. But the waiter was very nice. He saw Dad’s face and understood the problem. When my mum went to the toilet, he asked my dad, “Would you like chicken and chips?” When his meal came, my mum didn’t say anything.
But a week later Mum invited him for a meal. He told her then that he didn’t really like curries. But it was OK. Mum remembered the chicken and chips. She wanted to cook spaghetti.

A great party
One week before Halloween, there was a party for the pupils of the class 6C in Bristol. The party wasn't at school but at Mrs. Brown's house.
"Please wear costumes", Mrs. Brown wrote on the invitation. Daniel and Anna went to the party by bus. They wore coats over their costumes, but some people on the bus laughed when they saw Daniel's green face and Anna's long skirt.
At Mrs. Brown's house they had tea and cake. They played games and watched a short video. After that, Mrs. Brown put candles on the table and played a CD with sound effects. “Let’s tell our favourite ghost stories!” she said. When Anna told her story, there was thunder and lightning, outside too.
