27、y of friends and relations. In the summer most of them used to come to enjoy the beautiful place, and in the end it really became quite annoying for Norah and her husband.

29、Norah was complaining about this to her hairdresser while she was doing her hair. “Youre disturbed by too many uninvited guests, are you?” said the hairdresser. “Why dont you try my way of escaping?”“Whats that?” asked Norah.“Well,” the hairdresser answered, “when the bell rings, I put on my coat an
