Transcript:

Nina: Hi, George! Glad you’re back. Loads of people have phoned you.
George: Really?
Nina: I felt just like your secretary!
George: Sorry! I went into the library this afternoon to have a look at a newspaper and I came across something really interesting.
Nina: What? A book?
George: No, a brochure from a summer festival – mainly Spanish music. Look, I’ve got it here.
Nina: Spanish music? I really love the guitar. Let’s have a look. So what’s this group Guitarrini?
George: They’re really good. They had a video with all the highlights of the festival at a stand in the lobby to the library, so I heard them. They play fantastic instruments – drums and flutes and old kinds of guitars. I’ve never heard anything like it before.
Nina: Sounds great.
George: Okay. Shall we go then? Spoil ourselves?
Nina: Yes, let’s.
George: The only problem is there aren’t any cheap seats… it’s all one price.
Nina: Well, in that case we could sit right at the front – we’d have a really good view.
George: Yeah, though I think that if you sit at the back you can actually hear the whole thing better.
Nina: Yes. Anyway, we can decide when we get there.

Nina: So will you fill in the form or shall I?
George: I’ll do it. Name: George O’Neill. Address: 48 North Avenue, Westsea. Do you remember our new postcode? Still can’t remember it.
Nina: Just a minute – I’ve got it written down here. WS6 2YH. Do you need the phone too?
George: Please. I’m really bad at numbers.
Nina: 01674 553242. So, let’s book two tickets for Guitarrini.
George: Okay. If you’re sure £7.50 each is all right. How do you feel about the singer?
Nina: I haven’t quite decided. But I’ve noticed something on the booking form that might just persuade me!
George: What’s that then?
Nina: Free refreshments!
George: Really?

Nina: Yes, look here. Sunday 17th of June. Singer, ticket £6.00 includes drinks in the garden.
George: Sounds like a bargain to me!
Nina: Yes, let’s book two tickets for that. So, what else? I’m feeling quite keen now! How about the pianist on the 22nd of June?
George: Anna Ventura? I’ve just remembered that’s my evening class night.
Nina: That’s okay. I’ll just have to go on my own – but we can go to the Spanish dance and guitar concert together, can’t we?
George: Yes – I’m sure Tom and Kieran would enjoy that too. Good heavens – £10.50 a ticket! I can see we’re going to have to go without food for the rest of the week – we’ll need to book four!
Nina: Wish we were students – look! Children, Students and Senior Citizens get a 50% discount on everything.
George: If only!
