BREAKFAST OR LUNCH 20/7

The story:

It was Sunday. I never get up early on Sundays. I sometimes stay in bed until lunch time. Last Sunday I got up very late. I looked out of the window. It was dark outside. "What a day" I thought. "It's raining again." Just then, the telephone rang. It was my aunt Lucy "I've just arrived by train". She said, "Iam coming to see you".

"But I am still having breakfast" I said. 

"What are you doing?" She said.

"I am having breakfast." I repeated

"Dear me, she said. "Do you always get up so late? It's one o'clock!"
