(of) March

Script:

Woman: Hello. Lonflats Agency. Can I help you?

Man: Oh yes. My name’s Mark Jones. I’m phoning about the flat for rent in Putney. I saw the advertisement in the paper.

Woman: In Putney … Well, yes, Mr Jones, that one’s got two bedrooms.

Man: Are they double bedrooms?

Woman: One double and one single.

Man: OK. And how much is the rent?

Woman: Well, it’s £440 a month.

Man: I see. And where exactly is it?

Woman: It’s number 27 Earsley Street.

Man: Oh. How do you spell that?

Woman: Earsley. It’s E-A-R-S-L-E-Y. It’s near the train station.

Man: And what floor is it on?

Woman: It’s a second floor flat.

Man: Has it got any furniture?

Woman: Yes. It’s got some nice modern furniture.

Man: Well. It sounds interesting. I’d like to see it, please.

Woman: Can you come tomorrow?

Man: Tomorrow. That’s Tuesday?

Woman: Uh-hm

Man: Well, only after 5 o’clock.

Woman: How about half past five?

Man: Yes, that’s fine. Oh, one thing I nearly forgot. When will the flat be free to rent?

Woman: From the 1st of March.

Man: OK. See you tomorrow.

Woman: Bye.
