Recording
Julia: Dad, I really need a holiday! I’ve had enough of studying.
Dad: I know, but you can’t go for a while.
Julia: I know, I don’t want to go today, but definitely next month when the exams finish.
Dad: That sounds like a plan. But, you need to decide where you want to go and then I can book it.
Julia: Well, lots of my friends think Portugal is a great place to go and relax.
Dad: Yes, but we want to go away for three weeks and there’s not much to do when you get there.
Julia: I guess.
Dad: Where are Lucy and Tam going?
Julia: Tam’s going to Mexico and Lucy can’t go anywhere because her parents have to work all summer.
Dad: That’s a real shame. She needs a holiday like you. You can invite her to come with us if you like.
Julia: She’d love that. Thanks dad, you’re the best.
Dad: You’re welcome. So, let’s think of other destinations. We’ve been to Greece and you didn’t really appreciate that. We’ve been to Hong Kong and you loved that. So, hhhm, what about Japan?
Julia: Really? That’s an expensive holiday but I would absolutely love to go, and this year would be ideal. Next year, I start university and so I probably won’t have money to go on holiday.
Dad: Well, this year I’m treating you. You’re finishing school and you’re turning 18. Next year, you can pay yourself. But, if Lucy comes, she’ll have to pay for herself.
Julia: Dad, you’re the best. I don’t have a lot of money at the moment so I better start saving for some spending money. I know I’m going to want to buy everything when I get there.
