The NGS has sent every body in Britain a Self help guide. You may need to go to the chemist to buy cough mixture or pills for a headache o there are lots of medicines you can buy in the chemist. But for more power foll ones likefs antibiotics you need to have a presciption. If you can't to a doctor there a two other NHS services you could try. But many people prefer alternative medicine

COMPUTERS IN OUR LIVES


Computers are now a very important part of the life in Britain. Many people have got a private computer. Young people love playing computers games. Computer will control the way we live, in ''clever homes''. They can adjust the temperature; close the blinds, act for a burglar alarm and even turn on the oven. There will be television and internet socks in every room. Are computers overtaking our live?

The Queen Mary 2 is a very big cruise ship.
It sails from Southampton to USA (New York)
You can visit a museum of maritime history in Liverpool. Outside the museum, there are ships in the parks. Inside you can find out about life on sailing ships. Young men had to climb the raging to put the sails. Its so dangerous!!!!
