Probably one of the best literary magazines in time. If you like reading ,this is the place to go if you want to read the best interviews with the cleverest questions made to authors . There is also a very interesting section where you’ll be able to practise your listening skills by listening to the authors describing their work. Very interesting site if you are into books.
Do you like reading? Have you read the best-seller “The historian” by Elisabeth Kostova? Here is a nice place to listen to the authors talking about their books.

You can expect to make 363 mates during your life but you’ll only be able to call six of them your true friends, a survey has found.
Ten thousand people were quizzed to find out how we make and break friends.
The results showed that most of us will end up with a circle of about 30 close friends, with six of them being the ones we tell our innermost secrets to.
But what are the characteristics of a good friend? and Are you a good friend to your mates?

But , of course, you cannot be in London and not to go to the BBC. And so I went and had a great time. I even saw a quiz being recorded although to tell you the truth I don’t have a clue about the name of this quiz. I also volunteered to do the weather forecast as the pic shows and I became the newsreader for a while (I’ll show you the photo some other time) . Nice experience , by the way!!
The BBC is the largest broadcasting corporation in the world and you have to pay if you want to see its programmes. The annual cost of a colour TV licence (set by the Government) is currently £139.50 and with that you get good programmes without commercials.
The BBC uses the income from the licence fee to provide services including 8 national TV channels plus regional programming, 10 national radio stations, 40 local radio stations and an extensive website, bbc.co.uk which I highly recommend
