quickly! Yesterday I (4.take) my final exams. As soon as I (5.
get) the results, I (6.let) you know.I'd really like to have a
holiday when the course finishes, but I have to go straight back to Italy. If
I (7. have) more time, I'd visit Scotland. Unfortunately, I (8.
not. see) much of Britain (9. not even be) to
London yet! I really like England. The people are friendly; the
countryside is lovely and the food's actually quite good. My friend, Pablo,
love it here. He even says he wouldn't mind (10. live) here. But for
me, one problem is the weather. I think I'd rather live somewhere warmer
and drier. Recently it seems really terrible - raining every day.

My host family (11.be) really nice to me. They have looked after
me very well. I shall miss them. But I'm looking forward to
(12.see) my family again. My parents were planning to move
Rome. They might (13. move) already. I (14. not
hear) from them for a while. My brother (15. be
make) redundant, so now he (16. look) for a new
job, It must be very worrying for him and his wife. He says he may have
to move to another town where there are more jobs, but he's not sure.

Yesterday I (17. go) to the cinema with Pablo to see Aliens.
It's the fifth time Pablo (18.see) it! He must really like it. Well.
so do I, but I wouldn't want to see it that many times ! I
(19.apply) for lots of jobs recently. Yesterday I (20.
apply) for one with EU in Brussels, It would be great it I got it, but
I haven't got any good chance. They want someone with fluent English
and French, and my French isn't very good anymore .
Anyway, I haven't booked my plane ticket yet, so I must go into town
now and do that. See you next week. I'll give you a ring when I arrive
home.
