Our grandfather is an engineer. He is on the wrong side of sixty, but he does not want to retire. He works at plant. He works part-time.

Our grandmother is retired. She was a teacher and worked at school. She is the recognized head of the family. She keeps house. Of course we help her about the house: all of us do our share in daily household chores. My sister washes the dishes, sweeps and washes the floor, washes the sink in the kitchen. My work is emptying the dustbin, beating the carpets, dusting and vacuum cleaning. Our mather and father do most of the shopping. My mother and sister also do washing. But most of the cooking is done by grandmother. She is a wonderful cook, and all ourfamily likes her cooking very much.

Father is a doctor. He works at a large hospital. Mother is an economist and she works at a bank. Both our parents are very busy. Father has a car. In the morning he drivers mother to work, then he goes to his hospital. Father also always drives grandfather to work.

My sister go to school. She is senior formers, so naturally school takes up a lot of her time. She spend most of the afternoons and evenings doing her homework.

At the weekend we are not so busy as on week days, and we can relax: visit or receive friends or relations or just go for a walk. I also enjoy quiet Saturday evenings, when all the members of our friendly family are at home and nobody is in a hurry, and we are quietly sitting in our large and comfortable living-room, talking,joking,discussing our everyday affairs and drinking nice hot cups of tea with something delicious prepared by grandmother.
