Gareth was organizing toilet papers at his job when suddenly he saw a powerful oval light approaching the supermarket entrance.
"Oh God, what's this?" he asked eagerly.
Then, he hears a strong intergalactic voice coming from the flying saucer says to him:
"Hello human! Don't worry, we don't have time to torture you or destroy your civilisation! Me and my friends are just in a hurry to find a comfortable sofa to watch the final match of Champions league, you know, in our distant K-12 planet the tv signal transmission is not always working," the weird creature said.
"Really?! I coudn't imagine you were football fans like me too," Gareth said.
" Do you know a cheap place with sofas and tv sets to hire for a few hours?" the spokesman alien asked.
"Of course, I hire sofas and TVs for outerspace tourists like you for a good price every week, just $74 dollars," Gareth said excitedly.
"Could you take us there?" the extraterrestrial creature asked.
"Just go straight and then turn right and you'll see a beautiful shop on an island with cosy sofas and huge hi-tech TV sets. You can help yourselves at no cost with barbecue. Just grab a knife to cut the steak," Gareth said.

Thanks a lot teacher! You're like a guide for me. See you!
Now it's perfectly punctuated!
By the way, we say an island, not a island........
Thanks again teacher Anele!
punctuation marks are comma, period, question mark, quotation mark, hypen, exlamatory point, colon, semicolon.......
By the way.......when I said "punctuation marks", I mean "quotation marks". sorry!
OMG.......Daniel, there are already three punctuations in your sentence. If you used "question mark" don't add "comma" anymore.
incorrect: "Oh God, what's this?", he asked eagerly
correct: "Oh God, what's this?" he asked eagerly
**********
Please don't use the "period" when the sentence is not yet at full stop. Instead use the "comma".
These are incorrect:
They should be written as:
Did you see where I put the commas?
For example: you see a question mark and should you put the comma before or after it?
By the way the comma should be placed inside character's discourse or outside it?
Am I on the right path now Anele?
When using a subject pronoun, it should come first.
incorrect: asked he.
correct: he asked.
