You can have an extra point if you correct my previous post 😀
That‘s better than what I thought it might be.

I just couldn’t get the metaphor / simile / onomatopoeia / alliteration stuff right,
You need to ask an 11-year-old about that one. They get set writing exercises these days that must include a simile, an aliteration and a metaphor. Whatever happened to encouraging creative writing?

How embarrassing! :o:o:o
I just couldn’t get the metaphor / simile / onomatopoeia / alliteration stuff right, screwed up the whose / who’s thing and couldn’t spell accommodation (still can’t – thanks spell-check)!
Still given the general level of posts on this forum I shouldn’t get the worst score so long as people are honest (no implication in that by the way).
Roll-on next week’s maths test! 🙂

16 out of 20; not bad for a non-native, I’d say.
