A Short Holiday

　　Alan worked in an office in the city. He worked very hard and really looked forward to his holidays.

　　He usually went to the seaside, but one year he saw an ad in a newspaper "Enjoy country life. Spend a few weeks at Willow Farm. Good food, fresh air, horse riding, walking, fishing. Reasonable prices ."

　　" This sounds like a good idea." he thought, " I' 11 spend a month at Willow Farm. I'll enjoy horse riding, walking and fishing. They'll make a change from sitting by the seaside.

　　Four days later he returned home.

　　"What' s wrong with Willow Farm ?" his friend asked him. " Didn't you enjoy country life ?"

　　"Country life was fine," Alan said." But there was another problem.

　　"Oh, what?"

　　Well, the first day I was there a sheep died, and we had roast lamb for dinner.
