Mr. Reece was a farmer. He and his wife grew a lot of things and they had a few cows. They worked very hard. One day, Mr. Reece said to his wife, 'Let's go to Portsmouth next Sunday. We can have a good lunch there, and then we can go to the cinema.

His wife was very happy when she heard this, because she and her husband always ate a lot, and she did not like cooking three times a day every day.

They went to Portsmouth by train and walked about for an hour. Then, when it was 12 o'clock, they wanted to have a meal. They looked at several restaurants. In one of them there was a notice outside: 'Lunch: 12.30 to 2.30: $5.

'Well, that's good,' Mrs. Reece said. "We can eat for two hours for $5 here! This is the place for us.
