Conversation B

A: Oh, hello… You all right?

B: Oh, hello… Yes, I’m fine. How are you?

A: Oh, not so bad… working hard, y’know. So have you been away then?

B: Yes, we have, actually. Just for a few days.

A: I thought so. I thought I hadn’t seen you for a while. Did you go anywhere nice?

B: Yes… well, only to stay with Richard – that’s my husband – Richard’s mother up in Scotland… She’s been ill.

A: Oh, dear. Is she feeling better now?

B: Yes, she’s much better now, thanks.

A: Oh, good. Did you get nice weather?

B: Um… no, not really. It rained most of the time actually.

A: Oh, well… Are you happy to be back then?

B: Yes I am, actually. It’s always nice to get home.

A: Yeah… So that’s £18.92, please. Thank you… and here’s the change. Nice to see you!

B: Nice to see you. Take care.
