W: What do you want to do tonight?

M: How about going to the cinema? I should be home from work at five forty-five. Then we can go out and eat before we see a film.

W: What do you want to see? 

M: There is a good art film at the Green House Cinema.

W: Let’s see. It starts at six fifteen. I don’t think we can get there in time to see the beginning. How about the action film at the New State Cinema? It starts at six fifty. Perhaps the seven o’clock one at the UME Cinema is even better. It stars Jackie Chan.

W: Excuse me, sir? We have a small problem here and I wonder if you might be able to help me.

M: What’s the problem?

W: Well, the flight is very full this morning, so there are no spare seats anywhere. I have three small children. Unfortunately they’re sitting separately, and obviously they would prefer to sit together.

M: Yes…and you want me to move?

W: Would that be ok?

M: Well, I’m very comfortable here actually. I did ask for this seat.

W: So we can move you to another comfortable seat if you prefer. We would very much appreciate it if you could help us.

W: Gerry, come and look at the information pack for our trip to London.

M: There are so many things to do, Penny. I don’t know where to start.

W: Well, Why don’t we start with the kids? I don’t think Sally would like the zoo. She always feels sorry for the animals, but she’s been asking about the London Eye for weeks, so we have to go there.

M: You’re right. What about Billy? He loves boats, so it’s either the Thames or the zoo.

W: Definitely the Thames for Billy. What about an opera at Covent Gardens for your parents?

M: That would be great. So you don’t want to go shopping in Oxford Street then?

W: Which page is that on? Wow! This looks fantastic. There are so many great shops in Oxford Street. Will you come with me?

M: I’ll come if you really want me to, dear.

M: Our home here is fairly large. We have four bedrooms, an office, two bathrooms, a front room and a dining room. We do a lot of things around the house. We garden quite a bit, walk in our garden, and we play basketball on the basketball court we’ve got at the back of the garden. Usually Saturday afternoon we have a barbecue and that’s our meal because during the summer it gets pretty hot here and sometimes you just want to be outside rather than be inside. In California you really have two seasons form our entertainment point of view--- spring, summer and fall are all very much the same type of activities and then winter is very different on the activities that we do on the weekend. Summertime activities are usually involved around the children’s ports. My youngest son often plays baseball in summer.
