| Barbara | Give me a hand with this sideboard, Charles. I want it over there by the settee. |
| Charles | Don't you think it would be better under that picture by the armchair? |
| Barbara | No. The picture isn't staying there anyway. I only
hung it on the wall because it was in the way on the
floor. We can arrange the pictures when all the
furniture is in place.

| Charles | Where did I put my big screwdriver? It's not in the toolbox and I want to tighten up these loose screws on the door hinges. |
| Barbara | You had it in your hand when you went into the kitchen just now. Perhaps you left it there. |
| Charles | Yes, I think I put it down on the shelf above the sink. I'll go and fetch it. |
| Barbara | Pass me that brush behind the chair before you go; and take your tools off that nice polished table. You'll spoil all our furniture before you finish. |
| Charles | Don't keep on nagging. I've got to put them some- where. By the way, have you seen the cat this morning? You didn't shut him outside last night, did you? He'll get lost. |
| Barbara | No. He's definitely inside the house. I expect he's fed up with all the fuss and noise. He's probably crept into a cupboard somewhere and gone to sleep. |
| Charles | That's just what I'd like to do. I'm tired of it all as well. |
