- What are the most popular games in England nowadays?
+ Well, I suppose football that is soccer or rugger, and cricket.
- What are the other outdoor games?
+ Oh, there is tennis, golf and so on. Tennis is played all the year round – on hard courts or grass courts in summer, and on hard or covered courts in winter.
- What about horse-racing?
+ I should say that that is one of the most popular sports in Great Britain. Then there are, of course, walking-races, running, swimming and boxing.
- I’ve been told that there are no winter sports in England.
+ Well, you see, the English winter isn’t very severe as a rule, and we don’t often have a chance of skiing, skating or tobogganing. But winter is a great time for hunting, providing the ground is not too hard.
- Are there any golf courses to be had near London?
+ Oh, yes, any amount. There are dozens of good golf links within an hour or so of London. You ought to join a golf club if you’re keen on the game.
- I think I shall if I get a chance. And what about indoor games?
+ Well, there’s chess, billiards, table tennis and so on. By the way, do you play billiards?
- Well, I do, but of course, I’m not a professional or a champion. I’m just an ordinary amateur and not a very good one at that.
+ Maybe we should try a game of billiards.
- OK, that would be enjoyable.
