GIRL:   Mum. Can my friend Daisy come here after school on Monday?

WOMAN:   Not on Monday, Jane. You’re going to Vicky’s house, remember?

GIRL:   Oh, yes, of course. I forgot. I’m going to look after her baby.

WOMAN:   Look, I’m writing it in the family diary, so you won’t forget.

GIRL:   Oh, can you write something for me, under Tuesday?

WOMAN:   Yes. What shall I write?

GIRL:   ‘Jane’s History Exam.’

WOMAN:   Ooh, yes. That’s important.

GIRL:   And something else. Jack has to go to the doctor’s on Wednesday morning. He told me.

WOMAN:   Your brother Jack gets everything wrong! He has to go to the dentist then. I’ve told him three times.

GIRL:   When is Dad going to go to London?

WOMAN:   On Thursday morning, very early. He’s going to fly this time.

GIRL:   Really? What’s he going to do there?

WOMAN:   He has an important meeting at South Television.

GIRL:   Oh, right. Mum, could we go to the cinema on Friday evening?

WOMAN:   Um, yes, all right. There’s a new film with Sally Gold – what’s it called – ‘Find That Star’?

GIRL:   No, Mum. It’s ‘Follow That Star’.

WOMAN:   Well, let’s go and see that.

GIRL:   Could we go to a restaurant before the film starts?

WOMAN:   No, Jane. We’re going out for dinner on Saturday, remember? For your father’s birthday.

GIRL:   Oh, yes. Sorry. Where are we going to do?

WOMAN:   To the Saffron Restaurant. Ooh, how do you spell that?

GIRL:   Oh, Mum – it’s S-A-double F-R-O-N. And they have really good mango ice cream there.

WOMAN:   I know. It’s your father’s favourite, too!
