Helenas grandfather is talking about holidays. Read the text and complete the chart (5pts)

When I was a boy, most people didnt go to other countries for their holidays. Some rich people went abroad, but most people stayed in Britain. They didnt travel by plane and a lot of people didnt have a car. They travel by train or bus. We only had one holiday a year. My parents worked in a factory. In August, the factory always closed for two weeks and all the workers took their holiday then. We always went to Brighton for our holidays. We didnt stay in a hotel. We stayed with my aunt and uncle. They lived near Brighton. We didnt have a lot of money, but we had a good time. We played on the beach with our cousins and swam in the sea.
