What they want?

I had to get up early this morning. Id like to sit and have a of tea and a biscuit somewhere quiet and pleasant before 1 start my shopping. It's my lunch hour and I'm in a hurry - a glass of milk and a sandwich would be ideal. One ofthe best things about being on holidays is that you don't have to rush your mea s and we can take the opportunity to try something new - perhaps a foreign dish? Were so tired! Weve been shopping all day and were all hungry. Mind you, the children don't eat much - they always start playing around before we've finished. Its my birthday Id really like something special - what about something from abroad? That'd be fun for you but l'd rather not eat foreign food myself.
