Dear Mr. Bear,

Thank you for your letter of 17*" October. You asked about good families for students to stay with in London. Here are three suggestions: Mr. and Mrs. Cranley, Garden Street, London NW1 A large family with a large house. It can take up to four students .Everybody is part of the family. Good food. Good location (near an underground station), very central and easy to get to anywhere in London.

Mrs. Eisley, 3 Newton Avenue, Uxbridge Mrs. Eisley is an old lady. There are five bedrooms for students. Everyone has his/her own room and each bedroom has a washbasin and shower. Another house on the same street has two more single bedrooms, but students eat with Mrs. Eisley.Professor and

Mrs. James Earl-Jones, Wimbledon A famous family (Mr. Jones is a well-known professor, and his wife sings opera). The house is lovely, with a very large garden. There are two bedrooms for students, with two beds in each. Everyone who has stayed there says that the food is excellent. Each of these places is very clean and friendly. Some students don't like Wimbledon because it's quite far from central London. Others love it. Some like staying with the Cranleys because they have five children and three dogs, but others don't like it because it's too no noisy. Everyone likes Mrs. Eisley, so it's very difficult to get in. You must book at least six months in advance. I hope these suggestions are helpful. Yours sincerely,

Family Friends Agency

THE GARSTON FAMILY



THE GARSTON FAMILY
Mr. and Mrs. Garston live in a small village near London. They've got two dogs. Their names are Bruce and Spot. The dogs eat meat, biscuits and special dog food. Mr. Garston buys their food in London because the shops in their village don't sell dog food. The Garstons 5 have got neighbours, too, but they don't like Bruce and Spot because they've got a cat. The postman doesn't like the dogs, either.
Mr. Garston goes to London every day because he works there. He comes home at six. The dogs always wait for him. They stand near the door and bark. They are happy because they go for a long walk in the 10 evening with Mr. Garston.
