Old friends

Every month, on a Sunday, three young friends 1____________ four of their neighbours over for lunch in their flat in 2____________ London. So, is that unusual? Well, the friends are only nineteen, and their neighbours are over seventy-five. The three friends belong to a group called Contact the Elderly, and they want to 3____________ good in their community by making friends with old people who are often alone and afraid 4____________ being lonely. ‘Sure, we want to 5____________ a difference to the lives of our elderly neighbours,’ says Josh, one of the three friends. ‘We are worried about them sometimes, but we also enjoy their company. It’s fun to chat with them.’ Josh 6____________ it’s difficult to have elderly friends. ‘I’m proud 7____________ having elderly people as my friends,’ he says. ‘They’re fun and very helpful. Old people usually tell great stories. They also give good advice to help you get 8____________ hard times. When you’re on holiday, they’re great neighbours and are always happy to water your plants or look after your dog.’
