if there is a red and green light at the crossing, wait until the green man shows.
Walking when the red man is lit can cost you a fine of up to 30 euros.
It is also illegal to ride on the trams or metro without a valid ticket. The system
works on a trust basis so there are no barriers but you still need to buy a ticket.
Make sure you punch the ticket in the yellow machines on the tram or on the
metro platform. You might get asked to show your ticket to an inspector at any
time during the journey. If you haven’t got a valid ticket you will be fined 20 euros.
Finally, make sure you carry ID with you at all times, that is, an identification card
or passport. If you get stopped by the police or by ticket inspectors they will ask
to see your identification.
Thank you for your attention and we hope you have a safe time here in our
beautiful city.

1 It really does contain a huge amount of information on every subject that
you can imagine. Now, many people think that, because of the Internet, we
don’t need this kind of book any more. But in my opinion, it’s a very different
experience. With this book, you can pick it up, open it and start reading or
looking at the pictures – you don’t have to know what you’re looking for.
And you can learn something amazing.
2 ...and I asked myself, ‘Have I learned anything new about Michael Jackson
from this author?’ Because that’s the whole point, isn’t it? To learn new things
about the person’s life. And I decided that no, I hadn’t learnt anything new,
and so for me at least, reading this book was pointless. But perhaps...
3 ...and of course, in the past, it was very much a genre for children – with
superheroes like Spider Man and all the other great Marvel characters.
Asterix, Snoopy and Garfield too. But this latest work is really aimed at adults.
The pictures are amazing, the story is exciting and the text is perfect. Most of
the words are in speech bubbles, but there are also occasional paragraphs
of description which really...
4 The first and shortest of the tales, ‘Night Terror’, is a brilliantly written piece of
horror. It really is terrifying, even though it’s only ten pages long. (The others
in the book range from 12 to 25 pages.) My other favourite is called ‘Blood
on the Carpet’, which comes about half way through the book. It tells the
story of...

5 Most of the recipes are quite simple, but a few are more complicated – like
the chocolate fudge cake with raspberry and almond cream. All of them are
absolutely delicious! My favourites are the ones with chocolate, but there
are also lots of fruit recipes which...
