Question

Which words can be left out in these sentences? Cross out the number of words in brackets.

Answer

I got up when I felt like it, I went to the loo, I made some tea and noodles, and I stood at the window staring outside.

(NB: We can't omit 'I' in 'I felt like it' because it's a part of a subordinate clause with an adverbial - so no ellipsis.)
