My name is Phil and I'm 18 years old now. I'm from Harwich, a town in England. You can see my friend Max and me in the picture when we were at primary school.
At that time, Max and I were close friends. We had a lot of things in common. For example, we were of the same age. We both liked reading history books. We enjoyed the same computer games. Football was one of our favourite sports. And we often had a great time playing football in our free time.
However, Max left England when he was 13 because his father got a job in the US. Then we began to write to each other every month. I haven't seen him for a long time. But now I'm very happy because he is coming back to England next month! He's going to study at Oxford University. So we'll meet quite often.
I can't wait to see him. We'll have lots of things to talk about. I know we'll enjoy our time together again.
