    Secretary: Well, the last one is due at ... to come at 10 o'clock and will probably go on through until 10:30.

    Principal: Oh well hang on ... erm ... look what we can do ... you ... if you could give the lawyer a ring and ask him if he can fix it, the appointment, for Wednesday and if he can't make Wednesday, later in the week. It's not absolutely vital that I should do it then. And give Maria Rosa a ring also if you can contact her, otherwise you can tell her when she arrives and ... erm ... I can give I can definitely give her ... I've got Wednesday clear, haven't I? So ... erm ... (Yes) I can give her a tutorial on Wednesday morning (Yes) and that gives us two hours so you could ring the Cultural Council and fix it for then. His name's Mr. Dennis I think, isn't it?
    Secretary: Yes. So I'll ring him and tell him you're expecting him at 2:30 on Monday afternoon.
    Principal: OK then.
    Secretary: Fine. Thank you.
