It is raining all day today. I suspect it always rains on Sundays in England. Anyhow, it rains every Sunday since I arrived here three months ago. I just began to get used to it but I find it rather monotonous! I live in a boarding-house in Bayswater as I do not possess enough money to stay in a hotel or a flat of my own. However, I am enjoying my stay here as I had had already many opportunities to meet interesting people who came from all over the world. Like me, they study English or else they work with foreign firms that have branches or agencies here. Some of them are living here for quite a long time but even they do not speak English very well. My friend Peter, for instance, who came from Basel, and came here a year ago, still is speaking with a strong Swiss accent. He says this is because he worked long hours with an export-import firm where they spoke little English. Although I have been here only three months, I pick up enough English to be able to correct Peter frequently, but as I learned English at school here, I have an unfair advantage over Peter, who is a good fellow, and is most helpful in showing me about London during the first weeks of my stay.
