A Put the verbs in brackets in the past simple.
Two summers ago, we had a holiday in Scotland. We drove there from London, but our car
broke down on the motorway and we spent the first night in Birmingham. When we got to
Edinburgh, we couldn’t find a good hotel-they were all full. We didn’t know what to do, but in
the end, we found a Bed and Breakfast and we stayed there for the week. We saw the castle,
went to the Arts Festival, and we bought a lot of souvenirs. We wanted to go to Loch Ness, but
we didn’t have much time and it was quite far away. The weather wasn’t very good, and it
started raining the day we left.
