Time for a change

Stuart Redman

  I moved  to the city because I needed to get a job. There were no jobs for me in the country , but when I moved here I found one  in  the first week . People say it’s more expensive in the city , but you don’t need a car here and cars are very expensive. I live in an old part of the city and I can walk to work or go by tube. So I think generally  the cost of living is about the same. Bu I’d like to go back to the country one day. Sometimes I hate living here- it’s dirty, crowded and really noisy at night. When I’m old, I’d love to have a little place somewhere by the sea where it’s really quiet.
