Now, I wrote to you last week. Did you get my letter?
Yes thank you, Mr. Black.
And have you thought which kind of computer you’re going to get?
Well, it’s real kind of you Mr. Black, but you know. I think I can do without a computer.
You see I only have a small store. I just sell fruit and vegetable, you know.
Then you certainly can’t do without a computer. Your customers expect it.
These days if you haven’t got a computer, people think you’re old-fashioned 1. They think you just don’t try.
A computer’s not a luxury 2 these days. So when can I come over and see you?
But I don’t think I can afford a computer.
Oh-don’t worry about that. They’re cheaper than you think.
So, what about next Wednesday at three?
Ok, but-
Bye-bye for now!
Stupid old idiot 3? Don’t you get fed up with all these little guys, Jim? “I don’t think I can afford a computer. ”I don’t know Mantion. Little fish, big fish; when you’re hungry any fish is better than none.
Any way, it’s ten to six. I’m going to the bar. Do you fell like a drink?
No, thanks. I’m going out with a girl from our Los Angeles office she is over here for a week.
Her name is Jolene; She’s really something!
Very nice for you, Martin. Don’t work too hard, oh? Well see you in the morning!
Hey Jim, my head is killing 4 me! You haven’t got a few aspirins or something, have you?
Got a headache, have you? Sorry, can’t help you.
Here’s you table, “Sir”?
Thank you what about a bit of champagne 5, Jolene?
Why, I love champagne, Mr. Black!
Oh, you mustn’t call me Mr. Black- Martin’s my name.
Ok, Martin!
Hey, you! A bottle of champagne, please
So, what do you thin of Washdon, Jolene? Have you even been here before?
No, I guess not. I’ve ever been to Mexico, but I’ve never been to Washdon.
Well, how do you find it?
Wow! I haven’t really thought about it, you know.
Here’s your champagne, Sir ”!
Only a little for me, please. “I don’t want to get drunk 6!”
Oh, you don’t want to worry about that! Well, cheers 7, Jolene!
Cheers, Martin1
Maybe I can show you around Washdon? I’ve got a great new car-you know the new Bmws? -and-aaaagh!
What’s the matter, are you alright?
No! I think it’s my heart. I’ve got a terrible pain here! Aagh!
Oh my god, what am I going to do?
Get me a doctor! Come on do something!
Oh, right!
Now don’t go away now, will you?
