B: I will in a minute, do you need anything?
A: Yes, I need to get my dress dry cleaned.
B: I can take it for you, do you need anything else?
A:Yes, please. The sole in one of my shoes has come off. I
have to get it fixed. Can you take it to the shoe hospital?
B: Sure!
A: Oh! I’ve just remembered I need to get my boots fixed
too. The zipper gets stuck, may be they can get it
replaced for a new one.
B: Sure, no problem
Second conversation
A: Oh! I don’t know what to do, I need to get my
hair cut, but I don’t know a good hairdresser!
B: Why don’t you go to mine? Mmm…but won’t you
need more than just a haircut? Are you going to
get it washed?
A: I will! How much does your hairdresser charge?
B: It depends…are you going to get it blown dried
too?
A: I will.
B: Are you going to get it straightened?
A: I think so too.
B: Anything else you want to do?
A: Yes, I’d like to get my nails polished too.
B: Well that should come up to 90 Soles.
A: That’s not too bad. Can you give me the
address?
B: Sure! Here you are!
