Hello, everyone. My name is Judy. I live with my mother and father in a flat. The flat is
on the twelfth floor in a tall building. It has twenty-four floors in all. Our flat is not in the centre of the city. It’s about five miles away from the centre. My father works in the city, so he goes to work by underground every day. He doesn’t drive his car. He uses his car only at weekends. He takes us to the country or the beach by car.
There is a bedroom for my mother and father, and another for me. We also have two more
bedrooms for guests. There is a study, a living room, a kitchen and two bathrooms in our flat.
We don’t have a garden, but we have a small and lovely balcony. There are some plants there. In summer we often sit out on the balcony because it’s very hot inside the flat. Our flat is not very big, but we are very happy in it.
