I travel to work on the underground, but I often work at home. I don’t smoke, but I drink a lot of coffee! What else can I tell you about myself? My family live in Brighton, on the south coast of England. I have one brother and one sister. My brother works as a waiter and my sister’s a nurse. Their names are Harry and Liz. My parents are both teachers. I love sport. I play football and basketball a few times a month and I watch all the best matches on TV. My favourite food is
