I am Hannah . Last month my friend Claire visited our town for the first time . She travelled by train from Manchester , so my roommate Zoe and I planned to meet her at the station on Saturday morning . On Friday evening Claire called me to confirm her arrival time . She asked me to text her if the platform changed because she had never used our station before . I promised I would message her when I saw the live board online . Zoe asked me to pick up flowers because Claire loves bright colours . I bought yellow tulips at the market and wrapped them in paper at the shop . The seller smiled and told me to give them water when I got home . Saturday arrived with light rain . Zoe packed umbrellas by the door and asked me to check the train app for delays . The app showed Claire's train would arrive at ten forty - two on platform four , only five minutes late . We walked to the station together and waited near the ticket machines . Zoe asked a staff member to tell us when the Manchester service entered the tunnel . The staff member pointed to the board and said the train would reach us soon . When Claire stepped onto the platform , we waved and called her name . She hurried over with a blue suitcase and hugged us both . I gave her the tulips and she thanked me with a laugh because the rain dotted the petals . Claire asked us to help her find a taxi because her bag had a broken wheel . Zoe called a local driver she knew and told him to meet us at the south exit . I carried the smaller backpack while Claire pulled the suitcase slowly . In the taxi Claire asked me to describe the guest room at our flat . I told her it faced the quiet courtyard and had clean towels on the bed . Zoe added that she prepared tea and fruit for us in the kitchen . At home Claire unpacked and asked Zoe to show her the coffee machine . Zoe demonstrated the buttons and told her to press the middle one for a strong cup . Claire tried it and said the taste reminded her of a café near her office in Manchester . After lunch we walked to the old bridge by the river . Claire asked me to take a photo of her with the water behind because her mother collected travel pictures . I took three shots and sent them to her phone before the clouds darkened . Near the bridge a street musician played guitar . Claire dropped coins in his case and asked him to play one more song for us . He smiled and played a melody we all recognized from school days . On Sunday Claire wanted to visit the museum before her evening train . Zoe checked opening hours online and told her the special exhibit closed at five . Claire asked us to join her because she did not want to explore the halls alone .
