621	a famous rabbi, hillel the elder, made the first recorded sandwich.
622	he mixed some nuts, apples, and spices with some wine, and put it between two matzohs (pieces of bread).
623	people used bread as plates.
624	they put meat and vegetables onto some bread and ate with their fingers.
625	these were the first open sandwiches, and they called them 'trenchers'.
626	the name 'sandwich' first appeared.
627	an englishman, john montague (1718 - 1792) the fourth earl of sandwich liked to eat and gambled at london's beef steak club.
628	sometimes he stayed 24 hours at the gaming table.
629	he was hungry, but he didn't want to stop gambling, so the chefs from the club put some beef between two pieces of bread, and he ate while he gambled.
630	this new meal became very fashionable with other men in the club, and they called it the 'sandwich' after the earl.
631	an american writer, eliza leslie, introduced sandwiches to america.
632	in 1837, she wrote a cookbook, 'directions for cookery'.
633	in it she had a recipe for ham sandwiches: 'cut some thin slices of bread and ham'.
634	butter the bread and put the ham between two slices with some mustard.
635	eat for lunch or supper.
636	americans loved them.
637	sandwiches became very popular indeed.
638	they were easy to make and they were a wonderful, cheap, portable meal for workers and school children.
639	the 'dagwood' sandwich is a sandwich to top all sandwiches.
640	it is enormous.

649	i'm from denmark, so for me it's the open sandwich - of course, and my favourite is with beef - thin slices of beef, rare beef, with some crispy fried onions on the top. i love this.
650	oh, the best sandwich in the world is definitely a bacon sandwich.
651	hot bacon between two thin slices of white bread, and with lots of tomato ketchup.

654	i sometimes buy one for breakfast.
655	i'd like one right now.

658	i make my own pizza.
659	i was in turkey by the sea, and a fisherman called to me 'come, try a 'balik ekmak'.

1208	it's incredible.
1209	how did you find the people? very friendly.
1210	everyone was there to do business, and we were guests in the country, and they made us feel very welcome.
1211	so people there work very hard.
1212	what about entertainment?
1213	was there a lot to do in your free time?
1214	there's a lot of things to do.
1215	all the water sports - swimming, wind-surfing - and sport centres, where you can play tennis and squash.
1216	you can even go skiing there.
1217	yes, i understand that there's a ski centre with real snow.
1218	that's right. it can be 40 centigrade outside, but you can ski on snow.
1219	there's lots to do in the evening - bars, clubs, music.
1220	what about restaurants? i suppose there are a lot.
1221	there's every kind of restaurant you can imagine - from top class international in the big hotels to indian, chinese, thai, traditional arab.
1222	did you find the weather ok?
1223	i mean, it's really hot.
1224	yeah, it's a lot hotter than england.
1225	in the summer months of june to august it's really hot, but for eight months a year the climate is perfect, and it doesn't really rain at all.
1226	you were there with your family.
1227	did they enjoy it?
1228	very much. my two children were born there.
1229	we had a much better standard of living than in england.
1230	houses were cheaper and much bigger.
1231	my kids loved having a swimming pool.
1232	i'm sure they did.
1233	what did you miss while you were there?
1234	well, three things really.
1235	the biggest thing we missed was family and seeing family and friends at the weekend.
1236	another thing was the seasons - different seasons.
1237	winter is different from spring, summer is different from autumn, but in dubai it's always hot or very hot.
1238	and the third thing is there isn't the green countryside that you get in england.
1239	sand and desert just isn't the same as a green field in england.
1240	where do you finish?

1251	the river is at the bottom of the hill.
1252	the wood is at the top of the hill.
1253	the millbank hotel is on the right.
1254	at the end of the street turn left.
