Hello Jack,
thank you for your last email, it was full of awesome jokes as usual. I must share something I experienced yesterday! I don't want to spread any rumours but I am still shocked! Yesterday on my way home from work near Liverpool, just few kilometres before I reached home, I had to stop my car and helped two people. They had problem with the tyre and none of them was able to deal with it. When I came closer, I realised it was my neighbour and some woman. However, it was not his wife!!! He said: "Ohh, I am glad to see you around. You know we are in need and also in a hurry because we are going to the theatre." I didn't know how to react, so I just asked: What is on the programme?" What a paradox that he answered: "Romeo and Juliet." Oh my gosh, such womaniser! I have no idea how I will react when he visits us with his wife.
Best regards,
Adam
Hello Adam,
what a weird story but as we all know rumors are here to entertain people, don't you agree with me? Be happy that it was just a few kilometers, you were able to repair a tire and didn't need to give them lift! You know, I realized here in San Francisco neighbors are people I have no idea about, so I don't care who of them is out with lover and who is at home with wife. Anyway, thank you for reminding me of the theater becuase I have two tickets and one of them is yours. You can guess what will be on the program. Definately not Romeo and Juliet, my old buddy! Calm down and believe me or not but life is not only about faithful people, such womanizers are around every corner! By the way I am looking forward to see you soon and I hope we will enjoy it here.
Cheers,
Jack

Great use of the words. I enjoyed the story about the "womanizer":))
There's a common learner error in this sentence: "By the way I am looking forward to see you soon and I hope we will enjoy it here." -- Note that the "to" in "look forward to" is a preposition, not "to-infinitive".
Mr. Bob,
LOL you should be patriot! I agree with you that American spelling is maybe easier but since I was taught British, I can harldy replace it now with American :-D
meadow,
thanx for your nice words, I will try to find my sting to use it one day but as for bees it would be my last first and last attempt :D
Tara,
I am glad it entertained you! As for my common error... I guess I skipped article. Just A few kilometres... am I right?
I wonder if FEW and KILOMETRES go together without
Thanks for trying this week's Writing Prompt. Great work! Very entertaining.
Here is a common error to watch out for. Can you spot it?
just few kilometres before I reached home
I don't know if I should try to defend American speling or not. I do believe we do try to make spelling more simple.
