V. Read the passage and decide whether the following questions are true [T] or false [F]:
It was in 2005 that David, then a 30-year-old accountant, announced that he was bored with Bristol and wanted a rural lite.
I struggled to understand his desire to leave. We enjoyed an active social life, receiving countless invitations to other families’ houses with the children and we loved to host our own dinner parties too. With my parents’ help we were both able to continue our passion for triathlons.
Life wasn’t always perfect: Bella hardly slept, so neither did I. I was committed to a tiring two-hour daily commute.
Sleep-deprived, silly things would stress me out: there was no lift to reach our flat and, on my own, it was impossible to get two toddlers with their buggies up the stairs.
Over time. I convinced myself that a move to the country was the right thing to do; this was my husband, after all, the father of my children. Quite simply, I’d go to the ends of the earth for him. We’d start again. Somewhere beautiful.
