area. First she went to the bank to get

some money. Then she went to the butcher’s

to get four chops. At the greengrocer’s she

got baby potatoes, onions, green beans and

leeks. She wanted some stamps but the post

went to the baker’s and got fresh bread and

four small cakes. On her way home she got a book of ten

stamps with her newspaper from the newsagent’s.
