Generally, countable nouns are things that you can count. For example: one cat, two cats, three cats, etc. We use the article a to refer to one countable noun. For example: a cat, a cup, a table, a chair We use an with nouns that start with a vowel sound: an apple, an elephant, an egg, etc. We use some to refer to a quantity of something. We use it with plural nouns. For example: “There are some biscuits in the kitchen.”

So, to make this dish you need 300 grams of chicken, one cup of rice, one courgette, one onion, two cloves of garlic, 150 ml of cream, some oregano, three tablespoons of olive oil and some salt and pepper.

The interview was at 11am, so I went to a café to have a coffee. At about 10am, I left the café and started walking to the office. It was on Burton Street. I turned right into Fox Avenue, and then walked straight on until I got to Box Hill Road. Then, I turned left. I thought that was Burton Street. But it wasn’t! It was 10:30 by then.

The trip

We went away last weekend for six nights. We booked a hotel in St Austell (Cornwall) in the south of England. It was only €128 a night for a double room. On Friday evening, we had dinner, packed our bags and went to bed early. The next morning, we left home at about 8:30. The journey there takes about four hours. We wanted to get there for about 1pm – in time for lunch at the hotel. Anyway, I just turned into the road and drove down about 100 metres when... BANG! A car crashed into us! We were both all right, but we had to take the car to the garage. Then, we had to wait for few hours while they fixed it. It was so annoying! I called the hotel to tell them about it. Anyway, the next day, Sunday, we drove down to Cornwall. We had a great time, even though we lost a day of our holiday!
