    Hi Lucy. Have you been shopping?Yeah… getting stuff for my room at college …What’s it like?Well not large! There’s a bed, a desk, but nowhere to put books. And there’s only one big light in the ceiling. I’d prefer to have a lamp on my desk, so that’s what I got today. If I’ve got enough money, I’ll get some bookshelves next week. They had some lovely big cushions on special offer in the department store – I nearly got one today actually – so maybe the bookshelves can wait.

    Good morning. This is your captain speaking. I'd just like to apologise for the late departure of the flight. As you know, we had to wait for the runway to be cleared of snow before we could take off and get on our way. We'll arrive in Manchester in about an hour, and we're told the weather on the ground isn't good – there's heavy rain in the city, and we're expecting strong winds at the airport as we land, but we shouldn't be too far behind schedule. Thanks for your attention.

    Hello, I’m just ringing to book an activity at your leisure centre for the weekend. I was hoping to book a sailing lesson, but I understand from your website they’re all full, so I’m wondering if there are any cycles available to hire instead – there’s no information about those. I’d really like to join one of the group rides through the forest – I think I’d enjoy that more than the car racing I tried last time. Could you ring me back to confirm? Many thanks.

    I:Have you chosen a cake yet?

    H:I’m not sure. I guess you’re having the lemon one?

    I:How did you know?

    H:Because you always do!

    I:I suppose I do! So what about you?

    H:Hmm, I might try the one with the strawberries on.

    I:You had that last time and you weren’t keen on it, remember? I’d go for the chocolate cake if I were you.

    Mmm, the chocolate one does look good. Might be a bit sweet, though. Oh, I think I’ll have the same as you.
