Conversation 1
Situation: Jane and Tui plan a weekend break. Jane speaks
to Tui on the telephone.

Jane: Hello Tui, it's Jane.
Tui: Hi Jane.
Jane: I was thinking about having a few days away at the
weekend. Will you be able to join me?
Tui: That sounds great. Where were you planning to go?
Jane: I would like to stay in London.
Tui: I enjoy visiting London. There is so much to see.
Jane: I will book two single rooms at the Holiday Inn. It is
situated just off Oxford Street.
Tui: If we are near Oxford Street, we are very close to the
big stores.
Jane: I will book today.
Tui: Is it very expensive?
Jane: Most good London hotels are expensive but we can
get a special three day weekend break offer.
Tui: What does that cover?
Jane: We get bed and breakfast and £20 towards the cost of
dinner.
Tui: That sounds fine. Let me know when you've had our
booking confirmed.
Jane: I will pay by credit card over the phone.
Tui: Is it okay if I pay you when we leave on Friday?
Jane: Yes, of course.
Tui: I'm looking forward to our weekend away.
