My name's Margaret and I live in London. We moved house about three months ago. I didn't want to move, but our house wasn't big enough for anything. Anyway, I don't like the color of my new bedroom, so last weekend, I decided to paint it. On Saturday morning, Dad gave me some money, and I went to the shops to get some paint. There were lots of different colors, but I chose blue and white. I bought two tins of paint and then I carried them to the bus stop. I got on the bus, but there weren't any seats, so I had to stand up. Just as I was about to get off, something terrible happened. I dropped the tin of blue paint down the stairs! It left a line of blue paint behind it. I didn't know what to do. It was horrible!
