Mr García is writing a letter to a friend telling him about his holiday in England.He is writing the letter in a pub. There is a lot of noise in the pub and he has had three pints of bitter.His letter isn't quite correct. In fact there are six mistakes in the information in it.
Dear John,
After passing through the lovely Cheviot Hills where we had our lovely accident, we went to York. The bus took us through Darlington where they opened the first public bus service. I think England's buses are the loveliest in the world. Then I wanted to go directly to Stratford-on-Avon that lovely little town on the River Thames where Robin Hood was born. I think Robin Hood was one of England's loveliest Prime ministers. I think his plays are lovely.
But we didn't go directly to Shakespeare -on-Avon because María wanted to come to Ilkley first . We are now in Ilkley.We are in a lovely pub now. There are a lot of lovely people singing a lovely song and I think I am writing a lovely letter. The beer is quite lovely here.
Love,
José.
María, José's wife ,says the letter is a little silly and that her husband uses "lovely" too much. Rewrite the letter for her . Below are some words to use instead of "lovely" .You can also use "very" and "rather" before these words to make it sound more interesting.
