1.And now for the weather as we go through today, the temperature will slowly rise and the snow we’ve had for the last few days will disappear by the end of the afternoon tomorrow we can expect some rain but by the end of the week, some sunny weather is likely.

2.Look , Kate there are some of those biscuits you like! Yes. They’re a bit expensive, though mum. Why don’t we have this cake instead? Remember we’ve got guests coming tomorrow. Oh, I haven’t forgotten. I’ve already made a cake and I’ve bought lots of ice cream for the children. Well I suppose the biscuits would be nice with ice cream. Let’s see….Oh, good. I’ve got enough money in my purse.

3.I’d like to buy a white T-shirt with short sleeves, please. Large size. I’m afraid the white ones have long sleeves but we’ve got short sleeves in the darker coulours. Do you want a round neck or a V – neck? It must be round neck. Let me think……..umm. Ok. I’ll take one of the short – sleeved ones – the colour’s not so important really.

4.Have you packed for your holiday? No, I need to go shopping before I can do that. Last holiday, my suitcase handle got broken so I need something that’s better quality this time. But the suitcases are so heavy to carry. I always take a big sports bag – it’s light and not expensive, so it doesn’t matter if it gets torn. Yes, I thought about one of those but you need something stronger when it’s going on a plane I’ll get something I can put on my back you can carry more that way.

5.Ok everybody. This next exercise is a bit difficult but it’s really good for your legs. All you do is put your back against the wall place your feet about half a metre away from the wall move your back down the wall, so your knees are bent at 90 degrees. Now put your hands out straight in front of you right. Make sure your head is against the wall. Now see how long you can stay like that. If you do two minutes, you’re doing well.

6.The train arriving at platform six is the 4.45 from London the train due to arrive at platform four in approximately five minutes is the delayed 4.30 train to LonDon this train will now depart at 4.50 and travel non – stop. We apologise to passengers for the delay refreshments will not be available on this train.

7.Have you been to the new watersports centre yet? Oh, yes, It’s brilliant there are two indoor pools, one for diving and one for swimming and you can also have sailing lessons one the lake. That’s what I’m doing there next weekend, actually. I was hoping to take winsurfing lessons. But the leaflet says they’re not starting those until next year.
