Unit nine. Listening. Exercise five.

One. Alison.

When I was little, we always used to go on holiday to Skegness. It was the nearest beach to where we lived. We used to all pile into my dad's car, my two brothers and my mum and me, and we were there in a couple of hours. We always used to stay in a static caravan on the same site. Uh, what did we used to do? Oh, all the typical things. We used to build sandcastles on the beach and eat ice cream. We used to ride the donkeys on the beach. I don't know if they still do that now. Mum and dad used to take photos of us all jumping about in the waves. I've still got all those old photos. I love looking at them. They bring back such happy memories. Now I never go to Skegness. I don't go on holiday with my family anymore. For the last couple of years, I've been away with my friends.

Two. Richard.

I haven't got any brothers or sisters, so I used to go on holiday just with my mum and dad. They weren't really interested in going to the beach, which is what I always wanted to do. So we used to go to cities like Paris and Brussels and Amsterdam. We used to drive down and go on the ferry. I remember that I always used to feel sick on the ferry, and I hated it. Then when we got there, mum and dad just wanted to see all the sights. We used to go to galleries and museums and walk for hours around the city. To be honest, I used to get pretty bored. The only thing I liked doing was buying souvenirs. I used to collect loads of things, like postcards of all the places I've been to, and little models of all the famous buildings. I even used to collect the sick bags from the ferries.

Three. Jane.

When we were little, we used to go camping. We almost always went to Wales, 'cause it wasn't too far from where we lived. I suppose those holidays weren't too bad, but the main problem was the weather. I can just remember that it always used to rain. We used to climb mountains in the rain in our shorts. Mum used to say, your legs will dry quicker than your trousers. And we used to have those waterproof jackets that were like plastic bags, so you would get really hot and sweaty. Oh, it wasn't great. I think the only good thing about those holidays was that I used to make new friends. There were always some other kids on the campsite. We used to swap addresses and write to each other afterwards.
