Dialogue

It's Saturday and Mrs Smith has gone shopping with her friend Lucy for a new dress in the sales:Mrs Smith: Lucy: Well Lucy, what do you think? 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: Mrs Smith: Shop

I'm afraid everything in the sale is out on display.

Oh dear, it's just a bit too tight. I think we have a size 14 in red.

assistant: Mrs Smith: Shop assistant: Later... Mrs Smith: Lucy: It fits like a glove. What do you think Lucy? It looks really nice. I guess red suits you after all. Oh no. Red's just not my colour. 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.
