  2. Dear Di My mate is always late. Every day I wait for him at eight on the corner of the estate. It never fails: half an hour later he trails along like a snail. Every day I’m waiting for ages. It’s not safe and it’s starting to frustrate me. It’s my fate to be late for school every day. I’m even getting worse grades. I stayed with him once. His dad lays out his clothes, makes his breakfast (plate of baked beans like a lake) and he’s still late. Even when we go to play football or to the Arcade, he’s late. I start every day in a real rage, knowing he'll be late again. Maybe I should say something. But I don’t want to change things in case I lose my mate. I’ve been thinking about what to do for ages. My head aches. I’m in a state. Help!
