11 Revision Unit Our London Francesco Hi, there. Are you going to any music festivals this summer? There are over a hundred of them in the UK every summer. The most famous and usually the wettest is Glastonbury, of course, but there are many others. We were on holiday in Scotland with our parents last week and we went to T in the Park. The music was brilliant! We saw Rihanna. (She s really attractive and taller than I thought.) It was great fun because we slept in a tent in a field. I love camping! So do I. In warm weather! In Scotland we didn t get much sunshine. But a lot of music festivals are in London, so you don t have to take a tent. In August we re going to the Lovebox Festival in Victoria Park. We bought the tickets months ago. You have to buy them early because they go very quickly. The food at music festivals is great. There are lots of food stalls so you don t have to take Claudia food from home. But you should take warm clothes and you mustn t forget to take an anorak and an umbrella because it often rains. Another thing you must remember to take is toilet paper and if you re camping a torch. It isn t easy to find the toilets at night without one! Comprehension 1 Listen and read Mark the statements true or false (T = True; F = False). Then correct the false ones. T F 1 Claudia and Francesco went to a music festival in Scotland. 2 Claudia doesn t like camping. 3 There are a few music festivals in London. 4 You mustn t take food from home. 5 It s sometimes cold and wet at music festivals. 6 You need a torch if you re staying in a tent. 10 ten
