    T = Tula, M = Martin
    T: Hey Martin.
    M: Oh hi, Tula.
    T: Are you busy?
    M: Well … kind of. I’m just answering some emails. Why?
    T: Oh, I need a break.
    M: Why? What are you doing?
    T: I’m trying to write something for marketing, but I’m finding it difficult.
    M: Oh, right.
    T: Do you want to go for a coffee? Maybe you can give me some ideas.
    M: I don’t know. I’m meeting a customer at twelve.
    T: You have time!
    M: Yeah, but I need to finish these emails and I’ve got an appointment with the dentist at one.
    T: So, you can answer your emails this afternoon.
    M: Yeah, but I’m giving that presentation on Friday and I need to start preparing.
    A: So you need a break now!
    M: Oh, alright. Where do you want to go?
    T: Just to the place on the corner.
    M: Hey, by the way, are you going to that training session tomorrow?
    T: No. What’s that?
    M: Time management. There was an email about it.
    T: Really? Maybe I missed it.
    M: It said all the sales staff have to attend.
    T: Really. What’s it about?
    M: The usual thing, I imagine – using your time more efficiently, making lists, deciding what
    your priorities are. Things you probably know already.
    T: It’s probably a waste of time then.
    M: Almost certainly.
    T: You ready?
    M: Yeah. Let’s go.

    M = Mum, R = Rachel
    M: Rachel? … Rachel? … Rachel!
    R: What?
    M: I said it three times.
    R: I’m watching something!
    M: I’m going. Can you do a couple of things for me?
    R: Ohhhh. What?
    M: Don’t talk to me like that!
    R: Just tell me what you want me to do. I’m trying to watch this.
    M: The washing machine’s on. Can you hang the clothes outside?
    R: OK.
    M: And can you sort out your room. It’s a mess.
    R: Ohhh. I’ll do it another day.
    M: But you told me you don’t have classes today.
    R: Yeah, but I need to study. I’ve got a test tomorrow. And I need to finish a project before
    Thursday. And I’m meeting Jane tonight.
    M: Why can’t you meet her at the weekend? Or stop watching
    TV? You need to change your priorities, my girl. You’re nineteen, not a child!
    R: Mum! I have to relax too! I can’t work all day!
    M: I work all day and then do housework.
    R: Yeah, but you get paid for your work. And anyway, you’re my mum. That’s what mums
    do!
    M: Is that right?
    R: I’m joking.
    M: Well, I’m not. Please tidy your room!
    R: OK. OK.
    M: I’ll be back at seven.
    R: Oh! What time are we having dinner? I need to leave at eight.
    M: I’ll get a pizza on my way home.
