Hi Hans,
A few days ago we went to Michaleangelo’s – that Italian place you told me about. Unfortunately, it was a ___________ from start to finish. When we got there, there was a huge ________. We had to wait half an hour for a table. Then we had to wait ________ for our food, and when it finally came, the waiter had __________ our order! He brought me fish _______ of chicken! Martina had _______ pasta, but she got a pizza! Unbelievable! By that time though, we were both so hungry that we decided not to ________! Unfortunately, my fish was cold and Martina’s pizza just didn’t really taste of _________. It was ________!
When they brought us the _________, they’d charged us for a bottle of wine we hadn’t even ordered! When we complained about it, the manager didn’t even ________! He just said it was Saturday night and they were very busy. It wasn’t very cheap either. It _______ us about 25 pounds each and that was without the service ________. When I got up to leave, I ________ some coke all over Martina’s dress. She wasn’t very impressed, I can tell you! I rang her yesterday to see if she wanted to _______ with me again, but she wasn’t interested.
What do you think I should do?
Anyway, I hope you’re well. See you soon. All the best, James

GRAMMAR EXPLANATION
Present Perfect have(has)+V3
We use this tense to speak about finished actions which have a result in the present. It can also be used to describe an action which started in the past and continues up to the present. The following word-markers help to identify this tense: already, just, yet, ever, never, (once, twice, many times) in my life, since, for.
Positive sentences:
I/You/We/They have already finished the meal. He/She/It has already eaten it.
Negative sentences:
I/You/We/They haven’t finished the meal yet. He/She/It hasn’t eaten it yet.
Questions:
Have I/you/we they been there? Has she/he ever been to London?
Some/Any
Some and Any are used with plural or uncountable nouns. Some is used to describe unspecified quantities. We can also use Some when we ask for or offer something.
I gave her some information about the restaurant. Can I get you some coffee? I like some Italian food (=not all). I don’t like some Chinese dishes.
We use Any in questions to ask about the existence of something. Any can be used in negative sentences to talk about non-existence. In positive sentences it is used in the meaning “all, everything”.
Do you serve any salads? I don’t have any bread left. I love any French food. (=all)
