The Wilmotts won a lot of money on the football pools.
Barbara Congratulations on your big win, Mr. Wilmott
Frank W. Thank you. It really was a big surprise.
Barbara How has the money changed your lives?
Frank W. Oh, completely, I’d say.
Mary W. Yes, it really has. We’ve bought so many new things. A new car, for example. A pink Chevrolet.
Frank W. And we’ve employed a chauffeur to drive it for us. I’ve given up my job – I was a taxi driver for thirty years, so I’ve had enough of driving.
Barbara And what else are you going to do with the money?
Frank W. Well, we love the sea and the sun, but we don’t see much sun in England. And when it is hot, we don’t see much of the sea, either. Crowded beaches! We hate them! I’m going to buy a little island in the Pacific.
Mary W. Yes, just imagine it! But we shall pay all our unpaid bills first.
Dear Margaret,
How do you like your new job with the Daily Post? I had a very interesting interview
last week with the Wilmotts – they won almost 5,000,000 on the football pools!
Mr. Wilmott said that the money …………… their lives completely. I don’t know how
long their money will last! His wife said they …………… a new car – a pink Chevrolet.
And what’s more, that they …………… a chauffeur to drive it for them. Mr. Wilmott
said that he …………… a taxi driver for 30 years and that he …………… his job.
Mr. Wilmott said they …………… the sea and the sun but that they …………… much
of either in the summer. He said they …………… crowded beaches on hot days, so he
…………… to buy a little island in the Pacific! Mrs. Wilmott was a bit more realistic,
she said they ……………all the unpaid bills first!
Working as a reporter is fun. You meet all kinds of people!
Write soon and tell me your news.
With love,
Barbara.
