Hello, Jim. Where are you going?
To the cinema. What about coming with me?
No, thanks. I'm going home. My wife's expecting me.
What a pity. I believe it's a very good film.
Do you go to the cinema a lot?
Once a week. Most nights I sit at home and watch telly
Do you know what's on tonight by any chance?
No, I'm sorry I don't. I never read the papers till I get home.
Oh, I see. By the way, where are you going for your holidays this year?
I don't know yet. My wife's going to her mother's for a couple of weeks. She likes the sea, you know.
Oh, does she? That's convenient.
Yes, but I want to go to the country.
Don't you like the sea?
Yes, very much. But I need peace and quiet when I'm on holiday. What are coughing to do?
I'm going to stay at home.
Aren't you going to have a holiday abroad this year?
