(11) The owners of the home wanted to put (12) .a.. fence around it to make it more private. (14) .The.. work began soon after (14) .The.. New Year's Day when some workmen arrived in (15) ..a. lorry with planks of wood which they put up around the building. It was (16) .a.. very nice fence, said one of (17) .the.. old people. But there was (18) .a.. problem. (19) .The.. workmen forgot to leave (20) .a.. gap for the lorry to drive out through.
