DINNER DISASTER
Mr. and Mrs. Smith both
loved cooking. Mr. Smith
also
wanted a better job in his company. They
decided it
was time for a dinner party. Mr. Smith
phoned his new
boss Mr. Plummer and
invited him and his wife to dinner
on Friday night.
On Friday afternoon, Mr. and Mrs. Smith
spent a
long time cooking a delicious dinner. They
prepared fresh
salmon, filled with prawns and chilli. They
laid the table
with silver candles and bottles of wine.
Then, they
got ready. Mrs. Smith
put on a black
evening dress and Mr. Smith
wore his best suit.
Everything
was perfect.
The Plummers
arrived on time at eight o'clock.
"Let's have a drink!" said Mr. Smith. They all
went into
the dining room. Then they
saw the
table and they were
horrified. The main plate was empty. The salmon had
gone!
Mrs. Smith
burst into tears. "Don't worry, love!
We can still have fish!" and Mr. Smith
rushed out of the
house.
He
ran to the Fish and Chip shop down
the road and
bought four portions of fish and
chips. The great British takeaway! And they
all
had a lovely evening. So
did their pet cat.
