Helen: Hey, how are you? What's Germany like? Are you having fun?
Alice: I'm fine, it's fab and yes, yes, yes! How are things back home?
Helen: Great. We've just come back from Brighton and Michal was a complete star!
Alice: Oh how so?
Helen: Well this guy stole my purse while we were on the beach and he ran after him like a bat out of hell, caught him and got my purse back! He was a real hero!
Alice: Oh quite the Superman, I'm sure! So have you made up with him then?
Helen: What do you think? Of course ... Oh, her money must have run out.
