When we were in England last year, I went fishing with my friend, Peter. Early in the morning, we were sitting quietly by the side of the lake when we had an unpleasant surprise. We saw the duck come along with three ducklings paddling cheerfully behind her. As we watched them there was a sudden swirl in the water. We caught a glimpse of the vicious jaws of a pike-a fish which is rather like a fresh water shark and one of the ducklings was dragged below the surface. This incident made Peter furious. He vowed to catch the pike. On three successive mornings we returned to the vicinity and used several different kinds of baits. On the third day Peter was lucky. Using an artificial frog as bait, he managed to hook the monster. There was a desperate fight but Peter was determined to capture the pike and he succeeded.

One of the features of London is the number of big stores, most of which are to be found in or near the West End. They are big buildings, many stores are high; in which you may buy almost anything you want, from a box of matches to a car. You can spend hours wandering about one of these stores, and you will probably lose your way while you are doing so, in spite of notices pointing the way to the lifts and entrances. If you have been in the stores so long that you feel hungry, you will not need to leave the building, for nearly all the big stores have cafes, snack- bars or restaurants. You can ring up a friend from a telephone box and you may call at the theatre agency to book a seat for an evening show. Although the shops usually close at 5.30 or 6 p. m, on Thursday the West End stores and most other shops there stay open as late as 8 oclock.
