Sofia: Okay, so what’s happening this week? Let’s make some plans.

Jack: Okay, well, tomorrow’s first day of the month, so we need a new train ticket. Let’s
leave early to avoid the queue at the ticket office and then we’ll catch the train at seven.

Sofia: The train leaves at quarter past, not seven.

Jack: Oh, okay. And what are you doing at work this week?

10 Sofia: I’ve got a big conference tomorrow. It starts at ten and finishes at six so I won’t
be back til’ late. And you?

Jack: Busy day, busy day. I’ve got to travel to the airport to pick up Jimmy Jinx. His plane
lands at 8.30 and then we’re going to a meeting about the Bogotá situation.

Sofia: How are you gonna pick him up when you can’t drive?

Jack: I’m gonna get on a motorbike and drive through rush hour!

Sofia: Okay, don’t be sarcastic.

Jack: But How do you think I’m gonna pick him up? I’m gonna catch the train or a cab.
It’s like… you have this weird love of reminding everyone I can’t drive.
