How do I get my pocket money? 
Well, first my parents give me 5 pounds a week. 
Then I get 20 pounds a month for delivering newspapers. 
And finally I wash my neighbour's car three or four times a month and that costs him 15 or 20 pounds. 
I usually spend the money on chewing gum, cinema tickets and magazines, but I save some of it. 
At the moment I'm thinking about buying a new computer. 
Last month something strange happened to me. 
I took my 100 pounds with me to school, because I wanted to buy a great computer program from my classmate. 
The second lesson we were having P.E. and I simply put the banknotes into the right pocket of my jeans. 
After the lesson I put the jeans on and - there was no money in the pocket! 
I ran to the teacher to tell him my money was stolen when Joe shouted: "Hey, why are you wearing my jeans?"
