We enjoyed the evening as the meal was delicious and we (were served) wonderfully. Unfortunately, after we left the restaurant, we had a problem with the car as it wouldn't start though we ( had been trying) to get it started for nearly half an hour. We couldn't understand what (had happened) to the car and decided to leave it behind in the car park untill the following day.

September 11 сентябряEvery year on the first day of September millions of children across the world wear new uniforms, buy a bunch of flowers for their teachers and go to school. In many countries it’s the start of the academic year, which is an important day in students’ life. They understand that the new school year begins and want to make it pass more successfully that the previous one. Each pupil or student dreams of new achievements in different fields. That’s why, in my opinion, September 1st is an important day for children, their parents and teachers, of course. In Russia it’s the National Day of Knowledge. There are always festive events planned in advance. A day before that children get ready to meet their classmates and teachers. They prepare neat clothes and their backpack. Some of them get ready to perform in front of the audience, singing, dancing or citing some wishes to the youngest generation. On the 1st of September they get up early and make all the necessary preparations. Together with parents they go to school to see the opening ceremony and to participate in the holiday concert. Usually there are no lessons on this day, except for one meeting with the form tutor. He or she distributes the new textbooks to students and introduces their timetable. After the meeting the students are free to do whatever they like. Some of them run to play at the school playground, other choose to walk with their friends in the park. In any case, there are plenty of things to do in the city on September 1. There are concerts in the central square, theatrical performances, merry-go-rounds and all sorts of entertainment.Каждый год в первый день сентября миллионы детей по всему миру надевают новую форму, покупают букет цветов для своих учителей и идут в школу. Во многих странах это начало учебного года, то есть важный день в жизни учащихся. Они понимают, что начинается новый школьный год и хотят сделать его более успешным, чем предыдущий. Каждый ученик или студент мечтает о новых достижениях в различных областях. Вот почему, на мой взгляд, 1 сентября важный день для детей, их родителей и, конечно же, учителей. В России это национальный День знаний. Для него всегда заранее планируются праздничные мероприятия. За день до этого дети готовятся встретиться с одноклассниками и учителями. Они готовят аккуратную одежду и школьные рюкзаки. Некоторым из них нужно готовиться выступать перед аудиторией, то есть петь, танцевать или читать напутствия для младшего поколения. Первого сентября они рано встают и делают все необходимые приготовления. Вместе с родителями они идут в школу, чтобы посмотреть церемонию открытия или участвовать в праздничном концерте. Обычно занятий в этот день нет, а есть только собрание с классным руководителем. Он или она раздает учащимся новые учебники и знакомит их с расписанием. После собрания ученики могут делать все, что им нравится. Некоторые из них отправляются играть на школьной площадке, другие предпочитают ходить с друзьями в парк. В любом случае, 1 сентября много возможных мероприятий в городе. На центральной площади концерты, театральные представления, аттракционы и всевозможные развлечения.
