I have lived in Charfield in the south west of England since I was born. It's a village of 850 inhabitants. It's 30 minutes away from Bristol. It's in the country. I like living in the country. It's peaceful, pretty and clean but sometimes it's boring because it's quieter than a city. I live a long way from my friends and there aren't many shops or cafés, and there isn't a cinema or a swimming-pool. It's far from everything !
My cousin Alex lives in Bristol, I like visiting Alex because Bristol is more exciting than my village. It's a busier place. There are sports facilities and a youth centre. You can go to the ice-rink, go bowling, go swimming….There is a huge shopping centre! There are cultural facilities such as a theatre, a museum and a library. It's a touristy place with many historical monuments. There are more exciting and interesting things to do than in the country. There are a lot of buses so it's easier to meet friends. Alex likes living in Bristol but what he likes the least in his town is that it's dirtier and more polluted than a village. It's noisier, there's so much traffic. He also says that he doesn't always have the money to go to the cinema and he thinks people are friendlier in Charfield.

at the old haunted house
in a room with no sun
lived a warty green witch

and they hissed , they hissed in the vault made of bricks
at the old haunted house
teaching a lesson
was a hairy mom bat
and her bitty bats seven.
"DIP-DIVE!" cried the mom
"FLIP-FLAP" went the seven bitty bats
and they dipped and they dove in their dip-diving lesson
by the old haunted house near the graveyard gate
lived a spooky dad ghost
and his wee ghosties eight
"HAUNT!" cried the dad
"BOOOOOOO!" cried the eight ghosties
and they booed and they floated through the graveyard gate
at the old haunted house
half-covered with vines
lived a mummy mommy
and her wee mummies nine
"MIX!' called the mommy
"WE MIX!" called the nine little mummies
and they stirred and they mixed in the house with the vines.
At the old haunted house
in the dusty old den
lived a fat ma spider
and her wee spiders ten.
"SPIN!" called the ma
"WEAVE, HO!" said the ten little spiders
and they spun sticky webs in the dusty old den
at the old haunted house
the front door CREAKED
"TRICK or TREAT!" yelled the children
the ghosts skrieked "EEK!"
"COME IN!" called Ma Mummy
the monsters made stew!
the mummies made cake!
the witches zapped brew!
the creatures all grinned and the spiders all swung on sticky webs
the ghosties floated
the black cats scratched.
the werewolves howled
the vampire band played music all night
and they all had fun at the Halloween Party!
