Khalid: Hello, stranger! Helen: Ooh, hi Khalid! How are you? It’s been ages, hasn’t it? Khalid: I know! I haven’t seen you since the barbecue. Helen: Oh yeah, the barbecue. It was a smashing day wasn’t it? But poor Alice was really ill the next day. Khalid: Was she? Helen: She had to go to […]

Helen: Hey guys. Alice: Hey Helen! Tim: Hey Helen, good day? Helen: Not really… Tim: Look Helen, I’m going to call a spade a spade. Michal isn’t coming back and you’ve got to stop moping around. You can’t spend all day sitting by yourself watching telly. It’s a new year, and it’s time to pull […]
Helen: …no, no, that’s ok, thanks for calling… I hope you’ll find somewhere soon – bye! Tim: Was that another call about the room? Helen: Yeah, but he works right over the other end of town. He said the commute would be too much. Alice: Mmm, the last one said that too, didn’t he? Helen: […]

Alice: Hello? Paul: Alice, it’s Paul. Don’t hang up, Alice. Just give me two minutes of your time, that’s all I ask. Alice: Ok Paul, but we haven’t got much to talk about. You’re married with two kids, end of story. Paul: Alice, it’s over between Lucy and me. It’s been over for a long […]
Alice: Ah Kitty, there never was anything wrong with you, was there? I told Helen you were ok, but she wouldn’t listen. She had to listen to the vet though. He said you were the healthiest cat he’d ever seen. Anyway Kitty, Happy New Year: it’s just you and me tonight. I didn’t plan it […]
Helen: So what are we all doing at Christmas? Tim, you’ve got a few days off work, haven’t you? Tim: Indeed I have Helen, and I’m popping over to Poland for a few days. I’m looking forward to a nice cosy Christmas. Fancy joining me? Helen: I’ve already been invited, thank you very much. Michal […]
