Mr. and Mrs. Richards were young, and they loved dancing and loud music, but they did not have very much money.
They lived in a small flat and had a small stereo. They listened to it every evening and all the time on Saturdays and Sundays.
Mr. and Mrs. Richards both worked hard in a shop, and after a year they had quite a lot of money. Then they went out and bought a big, new stereo. It played music much more loudly than the old one. Mr. and Mrs. Richards sometimes played music very loudly at night and danced in their living-room for hours. Then one day Mrs. Richards met one of their neighbours on the stairs and said to her, ‘We’ve got a beautiful new stereo now. Come to our flat and listen to it this evening.’
‘No,’ the neighbour answered, ‘come to our flat and listen to it there!’
