Mr. Blake We haven't seen the Hunts for a long time. We were all in Geneva at the same time. They were our neighbours. Our children were friends of their children. I was the manager of a bank in Geneva. Now I'm working for a different bank in London. Our home was in Hampstead until last year. We're living in Sussex now. We had a lovely flat in Hampstead but we weren't happy there. We don't like town life very much. We're happier in the country. The children have more friends now than they had before because the people in the country are more friendly than the people in the town. Our life in the town wasn't as pleasant as it is now.

Millions of people all over the world spend their holidays travelling. They travel to see other countries and continents, modern cities and the ruins of ancient towns, they travel to enjoy picturesque places, or just for a change of scene. It's always interesting to discover new things, different ways of life, to meet different people, to try different food, to listen to different musical rhythms.

Those who live in the country like to go to a big city and spend their time visiting museums and art galleries, looking at shop windows and dining at exotic restaurants. City-dwellers usually like a quiet holiday by the sea or in the mountains, with nothing to do but walk and bathe and laze in the sun.
