Alright. Sorry I'm late.
No, no, I just got here too.- I ordered you a tea.

- You know me too well. Wow, that's a nice watch!
- Did someone win the lottery?
- Pshh. I wish!
- How much did it set you back?
- Oh, about 80 quid?
- Really? That's not bad.
- Where'd you get it?
- Lindsay got it from Churchill Square on Friday.
- Ah, the January sale, of course.
- Did you go?
- Yes, I did but I didn't buy anything.
- Certainly didn't see any deals like that!
- I went around 4:00 and the queue was already insane.
- How early did Lindsay have to get up?
- She didn't.
- She didn't?
- Yeah, she went straight after dinner.
- Oh, I see.
