I’m leaving for the airport at lunchtime tomorrow, so what would ‘you recommend I see in the time I’ve got? Guide: Wall, one of the most popular attractions is Montford Hall, a large old house about 10 miles outside town. It’s a kind of museum and they’ve tried to show what life was really like three hundred years ago. Tourist: Well, that sounds interesting. How long would it take? Guide: _ It would probably take you about half an hour to get there by bus, maybe twenty minutes by taxi, and then a tour of the house would take about two or three hours Tourist: Hmm.
