William's Bedroom



William is sixteen years old and he lives with his parents in a very nice flat in Vienna. They have a very nice dining room, a cosy and comfortable living room, and a super modern kitchen. But, William's bedroom is a mess. He never cleans up, and it looks and smells like a pigsty!

There are dirty shirts and smelly old socks on the floor, and William's dog Sarah sleeps in a basket under the bed!

But, not to worry! William's mother cleans up every now and again. And, so it is, that William's bedroom is clean and tidy for at least 9 or 10 days every year.

William's room is a disaster!
