Discussing an Entertainment Program
We have set up a programme for Mr. Santocs. We are planning a hockey match at the Platinum-Arena Complex, a visit to the Triad Pantomime Theatre and a folk song-dance show.
That would be great. Mr. Santocs is not a great hockey lover, but there is a fantastic match at the stadium. And the Platinum-Arena is interesting to see.
The programme may also include a circus performance.
I am afraid we are to choose between the Theatre and Circus since we are short of time. And Mr. Santocs has recently asked to fit in a visit to the Theatre. It has also its advantages: the acting is quite original and expressive, the performance is a hit. It has had a long run. I am sure Paul will like it.
Well, I’ll book tickets there. Shall I fit in a visit to our enterprise?
Yes, certainly. That will combine business and pleasure. We should show him round the main shops. And then we could have a talk in the manager’s office. We could also have lunch at the café nearby.
Good. I can include a two-day trip to the country. Mr. Santocs will enjoy fishing and rafting. Weekend in the countryside is the best way to rest.
O.K. But you are to arrange everything in advance. I hope the weather will be fine.
So do I. I think we did take care of everything.
