MY HOMETOWN
I live in Parkham. It‘s a beautiful little town. Parkham is not more than 100 years old. There are three parks. I often go there for a walk with my girlfriend. Her name is Jenny. She has a dog and she likes walking Ben, that's the dog's name, in the Green Park. It's very large and there is also a lake.
There is a swimming pool in Parkham. I go swimming every Tuesday and Friday. It really keeps me fit.
There isn't a cinema, which is a big problem. Jenny and I love movies. Sometimes we drive to Lakeham. It's about 10 miles from Parkham. There are two cinemas there.
Parkham is a very clean and quiet town. There are a lot of trees and flowers everywhere. My parents have a large garden. There are ten fruit trees, some vegetable and a lot of roses. My parents love gardening.
I love Parkham very much. I want to live here all my life.
