Here's a preview of the text for the writing challenge, when you're ready click the start button above:

- I've just checked the weather forecast for the weekend, and they're predicting nice weather both days! - You see, I told you so! I think we should pitch our tent by the lake. It will be a bit noisier than in the clearing, but we'll be closer to go paddleboating or swimming. - I agree, and I will take some earplugs just in case. When would you like to leave? - I will finish work early on Friday, so we could leave in the evening, which would give us an extra night out in the open! - OK, but in that case, we'll do the food shop on Thursday, so that it's not last minute.

Clever stuff happening!
