Dear Josef,
I love this club, it's fantastic!!!. There are so many things for us,speakers of English as a foreign language, to improve our level that I can't believe it!!!
Moreover, We have the chance to express ourselves, give our oppinion about issues of intrest and make friends,too.
Thanks.

The Metro

A short story


The discovery of a body in the Paris Metro early one morning was not particularly unusual. That it was headless sent a frisson through the sixth arrondissement, but the incident went unnoticed outside Paris.
