| Tim | Exeter 563. |
| Mary | Tim? This is Mary. I hope I haven't woken you up. |
| Tim | Actually I got up ten minutes ago, but it's only a quarter to nine. Why are you calling me so early on a Sunday morning? |
| Mary | Because the sun's shining and there isn't a cloud in the sky, and Alan and I are going for a picnic. Do you want to come? |
| Tim | It's true we haven't seen the sun lately, but I expect it'll rain again soon. |
| Mary | No, it won't. |
| Tim | Well I've got some work to do, but I suppose I could put it off till tomorrow. Where are you thinking of going? |
| Mary | Wen, there's a lovely spot by the river on the road to Tiverton. There's a big bend in the road just before you get to Stoke. You leave your car and walk across a field to the left. There are some tall elm trees by the river, and that's where we'll be. It's very easy to find the place. |
| Tim | Yes, I think I know where you mean. I'll come, and I might even go for a swim. Are you taking any food of drink? It's a pity you didn't mention it yesterday; I don't think there's any beer in the house. |
| Mary | Don't worry. We've got some bottles of beer and lemonade and there's half a chicken in the fridge. |
| Tim | Right then. See you there in about an hour. |
