    i thought it was grand tbh ..
    the aural was pretty easy and the letters were fine
    thank the lord a formal letter didnt come up and i was glad a postcard came up instead of a note.
    overall very happy :D

    I guessed and said he went to Sweden. I thought all the comprehensions, aural and reading were simple. As I suck at the letter, I was surprised by how easy it was. It was so easy they'll give us a hard question. I could get a B or I could get a C.
    That was so odd, a protest because of bad food in the canteen? The French would protest over anything, clearly.

    That paper was ridiculously easy xD
    Loved the aural (Ecosse is Scotland btw :P).
    The comprehensions were great and the letter and postcard were unbelievably easy!
    It was so funny how everyone was convinced a formal letter was coming up and were absolutely sh**ing themselves about it!
    Btw;; that guy in the last comprehension was an absolute bang!

    I thought that the letter and postcard were a breeze, the reading comprehensions were great too, an odd word drove me mad but they werent relevant to the answers!
    In the listening comprehension there were a few slips including, "Ecosse", which i know now. I said that the guy got the flowers for his mothers birthday but that wasnt as bad as my friends answer" the sea festival"!
    The colour of the dog,

    What was the guys job in section B II part 3?

    I got the fourth item in section E completely wrong but the rest was a breeze!

    Does anyone know the answers to the fourth item?
