stain out of your carpet, but we haven't been successful. Dry cleaning hasn't
helped, so unfortunately there isn't anything more we can do about it. Would you be
able to come in and get your carpet this week 3?
00:02:48 SPK_1

Hello, I'm calling the Burtons. This is Missus Brown from across the street. Your
dog got into my garden today and destroyed half my flowers. I'd say it's going to
cost about $250 to replace them, not to mention my time and effort. Call me as soon
as you get this message. The number is 916-5741.

Hi, this is Mary from Gold Coast Travel Agency. We've confirmed your flights for
you, so come by and get your tickets anytime today before 7:00 PM. We've also
booked you for three nights in the Paradise Inn right on the beach. The hotel has a
shuttle bus that takes you from the airport to the hotel, and it should be waiting
for you outside the baggage claim area.
00:05:00 SPK_1
It's a complimentary shuttle so you don't have to pay for the trip, although we
recommend you tip the driver. A few dollars for each bag should be fine. All right.
Call me at 878-1990 when you get this message.
00:05:18 SPK_2
Hey, this is Peter from the mailroom. There's a package here waiting for you. So
when you get a chance, could you come down and pick it up? Actually, it's after
5:00. O'clock, so I guess we're closed now. I'll leave the package for you at the
front desk with the receptionist. Just pick it up tomorrow from her.
00:05:37 SPK_2
Oh, I almost forgot that letter you were waiting for, The urgent one with the legal
documents. I'm sorry to tell you it hasn't arrived yet. If you want to check again
tomorrow morning, just give me a call at extension 44 Three. Hi, this is Frank.
Hope you're not working too hard down there. Anyway, I was calling to ask you
something.

Would you like to have lunch with me? I want to take you to lunch at a great
Italian restaurant near the harbor. They serve this really amazing vegetarian
lasagna and the service is really great, helpful and polite. Then after lunch, I
was thinking maybe we could take a boat trip on the river. I'm sure you'd enjoy it.
00:06:22 SPK_2
Anyway, give me a call on Thursday and let me know if you're free. My number is
754-9367. Four.
