    Well done for getting this posted, Roo. It is short and sweet, and has all the main points, good.
    When you reread it, look for how you could move the last sentence to earlier in the piece to make it clearer.

    I agree with the previous comment – well done on this piece of writing. It is a very clear summary for anyone wanting to know the main points about Shrove Tuesday. I agree that you could think about reorganising your sentences to improve your work. As well as thinking about moving the last sentence into the first paragraph you could also consider moving the first sentence into the last.
