Need Correction. Tim in a pub

Hi Teachers,

Could you correct this paragraph, please?

There are quite a few men in this pub. There are also a few women. It is almost closing time, eleven o’clock. A man is looking at his wallet; his name is Tim Scott. He wants some more beer. The trouble is he doesn’t have enough money for another one. In fact, he has little money, only a few coins and he needs them to take the tube home. “Perhaps it’s time to go home,” he is thinking.

Thanks in adanvce

Hi Clive,

Thank you very much for the correction and advice.

Clive'The tube' makes it sound like he lives in London.
Yes, he does. other words for 'the tube' are the underground, the subway, and I have even heard 'the metro'.

Not very sure about this one. But I'm sure you know about them all.

Best regards

TS
