It was raining since yesterday, and the sports ground was still wet. When the contest finished, the faces of the three soccer team players were covered with mud.
As I have friends here and there in the world, I receive the picture postcards they send to me. Once, I began to pin such postcards in a wall. Without even noticing it, they increased in number to a great extent. Now, the wall we are speaking about is definitely covered with postcards.
