My uncle

I didn’t like my uncle Conrad. When he rose in the morning, he somehow 30 ______ to wake the entire household. No one complained, as he was the breadwinner in the family, and in any 31 ______, he was cheaper and more reliable than an alarm clock.

The first noise I would hear was the bedroom door slamming. This would be followed by my uncle tramping along the creaky wooden landing and down the stairs. Then another door would slam as he 32 ______ into the bathroom. If anyone was still asleep, the rush of water, followed by two more slammed doors before he returned to the bedroom, served to 33 ______ them that my uncle expected his breakfast to be on the table by the time he walked into the kitchen. He only had a wash and a shave on Saturday evenings before going to the cinema. He 34 ______ a bath four times a year on quarter-day. No one was going to accuse him of wasting his hard-earned cash on soap.

My mum would be next up, leaping out of bed moments after the first slammed door. There would be a bowl of porridge on the stove by the time my uncle came out of the bathroom. Grandma followed shortly afterwards, and would 35 ______ her daughter in the kitchen before my uncle had taken his place at the head of the table. I had to be down within 5 minutes of the first slammed door if I hoped to get any breakfast. This daily 36 ______ in the household never varied.
