| Kathy! Have you got anything planned for Thursday?
This Thursday?
Yes, Thursday the thirteenth, it’s my birthday.
Your birthday! I thought it was the thirteenth of next month!
No, it’s this Thursday. I’m thirty this year, so…
Thirty… never! I thought you were only about twenty-five!
Thanks! Anyway, I thought we could go out for a meal, or do something to celebrate! Do you think you’ll be able to?
Thursday the thirteenth… let me think… no, that should be fine, I can’t think of anything else that’s happening.
Well, let’s say about six then. I’ll tell the others… and have a think about where to go.
Great. Thanks for inviting me – I’ll see you then, then.
