Dialogue
It's Saturday and Mrs Smith has gone shopping with her friend Lucy for a new dress in the sales:-
Mrs Smith: |
Well Lucy, what do you think? |
Lucy: |
Mmm, it's nice, but I think you need a slightly bigger size. The top is gaping. |
Mrs Smith: |
I think this is the only one. I'd better ask an assistant.
Excuse me? Do you have this in a size 14? |
Shop assistant: |
I'm afraid everything in the sale is out on display. |
Mrs Smith: |
Oh dear, it's just a bit too tight. |
Shop assistant: |
I think we have a size 14 in red. |
Mrs Smith: |
Oh no. Red's just not my colour. |
Shop assistant: |
It's not bright red, it's a nice dark red. Here it is. Why don't you try it on? There's a changing room free over there. |
Later... |
|
Mrs Smith: |
It fits like a glove. What do you think Lucy? |
Lucy: |
It looks really nice. I guess red suits you after all. |
