Peace and Quiet
Peace and Quiet
I moved to this area
seven years ago. For years I have had noisy neighbors. Ever since I moved into
this flat, I’ve had to put up with noise during the night. I decided I’d had
enough and I’ve been looking for a new flat since the beginning of the year. I
haven’t found anything till now. Every week I go to the local estate agent’s
office, but it’s the same story. "I might have something by the end of the
week," he says, or, "Wait till next week. I think I might have a few
flats by then." I’ve seen a few flats during my search, but I don’t like
any of them. One flat I saw has been empty for two years. "It’s got a busy
road on one side and a railway on the other!" I exclaimed. "I want
peace and quiet." Last week I visited the agent again. "I won’t leave
till you show me something," I said. He smiled and said. "I’ve got
just the flat for you." I went to see it and I was horrified. "But
it’s next to a cemetery!" I cried. "But you won’t have noisy neighbors,"
my agent said. "It’s ideal for peace and quiet!"
