Last Sunday was definitely an unlucky day for me. It all started when I got into my car and it refused to start. I immediately realized that I had left the lights on, and the battery had gone flat. I telephoned my friend Robert and he came round and helped me to start the car. I then drove into town to see a friend. I had arranged to meet him at 6.30, but by the time I got there, it was ten past seven, and my friend was not there. I waited for him for an hour despite the freezing weather, but he didn't come. When I returned to my car, I saw that someone had broken into it, probably looking for the camera. Luckily, I never leave my camera in the car. There was nothing I could do but get into my car and drive home. Later I spoke to my friend and discovered that he had waited for only half an hour and left. He didn't even let me know about that.
