Task 2 A funny thing happened to me
A funny thing happened to me last Friday.
I'd gone to London to do some shopping.
I wanted to get some Christmas presents, and I needed to find some books for my course at college, you see, I'm a student.
I caught an early train to London, so by early afternoon, I'd bought everything I wanted.
Anyway, I'm not very fond of London, all the noise and traffic, and I'd made some arrangements for that evening.
So, I took a taxi to Waterloo station.
I can't really afford taxis, but I wanted to get the 3.30 train.
Unfortunately, the taxi got stuck in a traffic jam, and by the time I got to Waterloo, the train had just gone.
I had to wait an hour for the next one.
I bought an evening newspaper, the "Standard", and wandered over to the station buffet.
At that time of day, it's nearly empty, so I bought a coffee and a packet of biscuits, chocolate biscuits.
I'm very fond of chocolate biscuits.
There were plenty of empty tables and I found one near the window.
I sat down and began doing the crossword.
I always enjoy doing crossword puzzles.
After a couple of minutes, a man sat down opposite me.
There was nothing special about him, except that he was very tall.
In fact, he looked like a typical city businessman... you know, dark suit and briefcase.
I didn't say anything and I carried on with my crossword.
Suddenly he reached across the table, opened my packet of biscuits, took one, dipped it into his coffee and popped it into his moth.
I couldn't believe my eyes.
I was too shocked to say anything.
Anyway, I didn't want to make a fuss.
So I decided to ignore it.
I alway avoid trouble if I can.
I just took a biscuit myself and went back to my crossword.
When the man took a second biscuit, I didn't look up and I didn't make a sound.
I pretended to be very interested in the puzzle.
After a couple of minutes, I casually put out my hand, took the last biscuit and glanced to the man.
He was staring at me furiously.
I nervously put the biscuit in my mouth, and decided to leave.
I was ready to get up and go when the man suddenly pushed back his chair, stood up and hurried out of the buffet.
I felt vey relieved, and decided to wait two or three minutes before going myself.
I finished my coffee, folded my newspaper and stood up.
And there, on the table, where my newspaper had been, was my packet of biscuits.
