Hey, Mark.
Hey, how's things with you?- Good, thanks.
- Actually, while you're here, could I possibly ask a favour?
- Why, what's up?
- Well, my parents have asked me to get rid of some of the stuff that's still at their place in boxes.
- They're clogging up the spare bedroom.
- So, I'm gonna hire a van and drive them down here next Friday.
- Okay…
- So, I was wondering if you might be able to help me with the moving and if you could share the driving with me.
- It'll take about 5 hours or so if we use the motorway, and I'm still not that confident with my driving yet.
- Ah, that's right.
- You only passed your test a couple of months ago.
- Yeah.
- Um, let me check what I have on that day,
- but I think it should be fine.
- That would be great, thanks a lot.
- No probs.
