Hi Kate
How's your university course? My new job is great, but it's Saturday and I'm at home now. I'm sitting on the sofa and I am (watching) a cooking programme on TV. I usually
(go) shopping on Saturday, or I (meet) my friends, but I'm tired today. My brother, Terry, is upstairs. I think he is (playing) a computer game. Mum (is making) dinner. It smells very nice. I can't write any more now - the phone is (ringing).
See you soon
