W:Yes. But I couldn't help it. I was late getting off work for a start, and then I missed the bus. The bus I did catch got caught in a traffic jam. It was one thing after another.
M:But why were you so late getting off work? The office closes at six,doesn't it?
W:Yes,but there was a rush on at the moment, and my boss asked me to do some urgent letters.
M:But didn't you tell him you had an appointment?
W:Well, no. I thought I'd finish in about five minutes. If it hadn't been for missing the bus and the traffic,I wouldn't have been so late. I am sorry.
M:Well,you're here. And that's the main thing.
(Text 9)
W:Hello, Betty Saunders.
M:Betty! This is Tom. Shall we meet before we go to the cinema this evening?
W:That'd be lovely, Tom.
M:Shall I pick you up at the office after work?
W:Thanks. But I'll have to go home and wash my hair first.
M:Would you like me to come round to your place?
W:No. Don't put yourself out. I'll drive over to your place at about seven.
M:Fine. See you at seven,then. Bye.
W:Bye.
(Text 10)
Well, now. Ladies and Gentlemen. That was our last item,and all I want to do is to thank our performers for the pleasure they have given us this evening. And of course I must express our thanks to those who've worked behind the scenes,and especially our producer. But most of all I want to say thank you to all of you for coming here this evening and supporting this event,especially in such weather. I think perhaps I should take this chance to make an apology to those sitting in the back rows. We've made some repairs to the roof, but unfortunately the rain tonight was unexpectedly heavy, and we're thankful to you for your understanding and cheerful good humor. We had hoped that the repairs would be enough. But we were recently told that the whole roof would have to be replaced. We were upset to learn the news because it's only five years since we replaced the roof of the church itself. And so we shall be having another concert soon, I hope.
