Postcards always spoil my holidays. Last summer, I went to Italy.
I visited museums and sat in public gardens. A friendly waiter
taught me a few words of Italian. Then he lent me a book. I read
a few lines, but I did not understand a word. Everyday I thought
about postcards. My holidays passed quickly, but I did not send
cards to my friends. On the last day I made a big decision. I
got up early and bought thirty-seven cards. I spent the whole
day in my room, but I did not write a single card!
