Episode 66: Choosing a gift
Janet: And how's my favourite shop assistant today?
Tim: Oh! Good morning, Janet! It's assistantmanager actually.
Janet: So sorry, darling, assistant manager. Now, I do hope you can help me. I'm looking for a very special gift for a very special person.
Tim: I'm sure we can help you there madam. Is it for a gentleman or a lady?
Janet: A gentleman. Fine jewellery looks so lovely on a man, don't you agree?
Tim: In that case, let me show you these cuff-links... and here are some very nice tie-clips.
Janet: Those watches look rather nice.
Tim: Err, yes... but the latest model isn't available, and it's important to have the latest model, don't you think?
Janet: Not necessarily. I always say that style is more important than fashion.
