5) Hi Benny,
I’ve had a good day today! You know my mum and dad gave me some money for my birthday? Well, I couldn’t decide what to spend it on, but finally I decided to get tickets for me and Simon to go to the Westwood Music Festival last Sunday. Oh, I wish you had been there. You’d have loved it! There were so many bands playing that we couldn’t hear all of them. There were four different stages as well as several big tents, and we just went from one to another. We all knew all the words to the songs so everyone was smiling and joining in. I haven’t seen Simon in such a good mood for a long time! I’m glad we decided to go on the Sunday because if we’d chosen the Saturday, we would have gotten very wet! It poured all day, and there wasn’t really anywhere to shelter properly. But on Sunday we had one of the sunniest days of the year so far. There’s nothing better than listening to good music in the sunshine.
Anyway, I hope you’ve had a good weekend, too.
Love,
Lucy
