Hello, Ken.
Hi, George.
Have you just been to the cinema?

It’s an old film, but it’s very good.
Paris is a beautiful city.
I’ve never been there. Have you ever been there, Ken?

Paris in the spring, eh?

Isn’t that your car?
Well, it was my car.
Didn’t you have a crash?
That’s right. I drove it into a lamp post. Can your mechanics repair it?

Twenty years! That’s a long time.

How much does this house cost?
68,500 pounds.
That’s a lot of money!
It’s worth every penny of it.
