THE PERFECT CRIME
Alice Jackson's husband, Henry, was a man of habit. So it was that at exactly six o'clock in the evening she was in the kitchen getting a beer for him out of the fridge and watching him walk up the path.
She was smiling. Today the routine was going to be different. It was their tenth wedding anniversary, and some friends were coming round for drinks at 8.00. There was a big ice statue of a couple kissing in the middle of the table in the living room, with twenty glasses waiting for the guests. Alice was looking forward to the evening.
She was very happy. She had a beautiful baby sleeping upstairs, a lovely home, and a husband who she adored.
Henry opened the door and came into the kitchen. She turned round to kiss him and give him his beer.
'Sit down', Henry said. ' I've got something to say'.
Alice had no idea that in the next two minutes her whole life was going to change.
' I'm sorry', he said. 'And it's our anniversary, as well. But it's just that Kathy and I are in love. Bobby won't miss me, he's too young'.
She didn't believe her cars. She was in a dream.
' I'll get ready for the party', she said.
She walked into the living room. When she returned, Henry was standing with his back to her, drinking his beer. She was carrying something heavy. He turned. ' What on carth... ?' These were Henry Jackson's last words. His wife hit him over the head.
At first he didn't move, then he fell to the floor.
Suddenly Alice began to think very clearly. She took the ice statue back to the living room, and phoned the police.
Then she turned up the central heating, and went upstairs to put on some make-up.
The police came quickly.
' Is he all right?' she asked.
' He's dead'.
Alice screamed. ' No, no, not Henry! My Henry! Oh Henry!' Through her tears she told how she put the baby to bed, and came downstairs yo find Henry on the kitchen floor.
' Burglars,' said Detective Parry.
They took her into the living room.
' Sit down, Mrs Jackson. Sergeant Taylor, get Mrs Jackson a drink. A brandy with some ice. Phew! It's hot in this room. I hope you understand, Mrs Jackson, that we have to search the house immediately. We must find the murder weapon'.
The room was getting hotter. Suddenly an arm fell off the ice statue on to the table. It was melting. Sergeant Taylor went to the statue and picked up the melting arm.
He broke it into bits and put some into Alice's brandy.
'Phrew! Can I have a glass of water, Mrs Jackson? It's so hot in here'.
' I think we all need one,' said the detective. ' And with ice'. They were all very hot and thirsty.
Alice's friends arrived. ' Poor Alice! Poor Henry!' They cried, and they tried to comfort her.
' Oh, thank you, thank you,' sobbed Alice. ' Please ... stay and have a drink. Help yourselves'.
They all had drinks - gin and tonie, whisky - and they all had ice. The statue was now nearly a pool of water on the floor.
' I wonder what the burglar hit him with', said one guest.
' Who knows'? said another, taking a sip of her drink.
Alice heard this conversation, and smiled into her brandy.

THREE WISHES AND A WINDSURF BOARD
A Frenchman, an Italian and an Englishman wanted to be the first people to windsurf across the Pacific. They SET OFF (set off) one morning in July. When they WAS TRAVELING (travel) for a month the weather suddenly changed dramatically. It became very windy and the waves were enormous. Unfortunately one of the waves BROKE (break) their windsurf boards in two.
Luckily the three men MANAGED (manage) to swim to a small inland. TheyWERE (be) on the island for several weeks when one morning the Italian came back with a bottle he FOUND (find) on the beach while he WAS JOGING (jog).
When the opened it there was a big flash and a genie suddenlyAPPEARED (appear).
'Thank you!Thank you!' said the genie. 'I am free thank to you!' He told the three men that he WAS (be) a prisoner in the bottle for fifty years. 'To show how grateful I am you can each have once wish- anything you want'. Then he DISAPPEARED (disappear).
Immediately the Italian shouted, 'This is my wish! I'd love to be in Rome eating a big plate of my mother's spaghetti!' At once there was a big flash and a cloud of smoke and when it cleared the other two saw that the ItalianDISAPPEARED (disappear)
Next, the Frenchman said, ' Genie, please take me to my favourite restaurant with my wife near the Eiffel Tower'. Immediately there was a flash and he too disappeared.
The Englishman, who wasn't very intelligent, sat down on a rock.
He WAS FEELING (feel) a bit unhappy and lonely now that both his friendsWENT (go). He THOUGHT (thought) for a moment then he MADE (make) his wish. 'Genie! Please... bring my friens back!' There was a big flash...

SOME THINGS NEVER CHANGE
It was three o'clock. A man WAS WALKING (walk) down a high street in the North of England. He WAS WEARING (wear) a dark suit and carrying a suitcase. His name was Terry and he LIVED (live) away from home for the last twenty years. In fact he WAS (be) in prision.
Terry was feeling totally depressed because everything in his home townWAS CHANGING (change). The park where he used to play was now a car park. The house where he was born DISAPPEARED (disappear) and in its place, ironically, was a bank. Terry DECIDED (decide) to have a cup of coffe in the old snack bar where he used to go with his friends after school but itWAS BECOMING (become) a burger bar.
While WAS PAYING FOR (pay for) the coffee he FOUND (find) an old ticket in his wallet. It was for a pair of shoes he TOOK (take) to be repaired the day before the bank robbery 20 years ago. The shoe repaired was an old man then so Terry was sure that he must be dead. But when he TURNED(turn) the corner of the street he couldn't believe his eyes. The shop was still there! And it was the same shoe repaire! He looked about a hundred years old.
Terry was so Happy!Terry told him that he LIVED (live) in Australia for the past twenty years and that he FORGOT (forget) to pick up some shoes before he left England.
The shoe repairer disappeared into the back of the shop. After ten minutes he CAME BACK (come back). 'Were they dark brown, Italian shoes, size 42?' He asked slowly.
'Yes!' said Terry, excitedly.
'They'll be ready tomorrow afternoon,' said the shoe repairer.
