Use the past simple to talk about past events.
Check your punctuation.

Last September, I was in an amazing event on

the River Thames in London. It was called the
Great River Race. My friend Todd and I used
to go to watch it every year, but last year we
decided to be in it.

We didnt have a boat, so we built one. We

used an old plastic bath. Then we sailed it!

, Lots of people came to watch the race from

the bridges and the riverbanks. The race was
very exciting and we laughed a lot. In the end,
we didnt finish the race because we fell into
the water! But we took some great photos.

After the race, there was a big barbecue and

later there were firew orks. I really enjoyed the
event because it was a lot of fun. I cant w ait
to do it again next year!
