Episode 72: Christmas Shopping
Alice: Hmm, what do you think, you two, how do I look? Helen: Ooh, it's a gorgeous dress, Alice, but the other one seemed nicer. Alice: Mmm, it is lovely, isn't it? But you're right, the blue dress looks better. Tim? Tim: Oh yes, lovely, very nice. Can we go and look at the computer games now? Alice: Ok Tim, you've been very patient. Let's just get Helen's shoes and then we can go to the electronics shop. I want to buy a camera for my brother, and then Helen wants to get a book for her Dad, don't you Helen? Helen: Yes, and after that I expect we'll all be feeling peckish, so we'll have a quick bite to eat, and then Alice wants to look at winter coats. Tim: Here we go... Alice: It won't take as long as the dress, I promise!
