Episode 51: Summertime blues

Alice: It's nice to be back but I do miss the excitement of the World Cup. I'm bored!
Helen: Oh thanks very much!
Alice: I didn't mean you! I just mean it's a bit hard to come back to reality that's all.
Tim: Who says we have to? Why don't we do something to cheer ourselves up?
Alice: Like what?
Michal: Go to the pub.
Alice: No, it's too smoky.
Tim: Go to a nightclub.
Helen: It's too noisy.
Michal: How about going to the cinema?
Alice: There's nothing on I really want to see.
Michal: We could have a party.
Alice: What are we celebrating?
Michal: You know it's almost a year since I came to live here.
Tim: Perfect! We'll have our first anniversary party!
