While we were eating, George got the newspaper and read us interesting pieces from it, pieces about people who had been killed on the river, and interesting reports about the weather. The weather report for that day said, "Rain, cold, wet to fine, some thunder, and an east wind". But weather reports make me angry anyway. They always tell you what the weather was like yesterday, or the day before. It is never today's weather. It is always wrong. I remember that one autumn I went on holiday…

On that holiday, the weather reports in the newspaper were always wrong. on Monday it said, "Heavy rain, with thunder". So we did not go out that day. All day people passed our house. They were all going out, happy and smiling. The sun was shining and there were no clouds in the sky.
