Dialogue :



 

It's Saturday and Joan and Steve are decorating.

Joan  : Steve, you missed a bit.


Steve: Where?


Joan  : Here, on the wall just by the window, you can see a patch of white.


Steve : Oh yes, I see it. It's difficult in this light.


Joan  : I know, well at least we have finished this room, only five more to go.


Steve : Are you sure you want to put wallpaper up in the lounge?


Joan  : Yes, but don't worry, I'm really good at wallpapering. I just wish that John would decide on what he wants his room doing in.


Steve : I know, it's difficult when you're a boy. At least he's grown out of Star Wars, I keep thinking he'll ask for red and black or something equally gruesome.


Joan  : Yes, but it is his room. I'm glad we decided not to move though. Maybe we should think about building an extension to the kitchen instead.


Steve : One thing at a time please! Lets get this decorating over and done with first.


Joan  : Ha! Oh by the way you missed a bit by the door too!


Steve : Hmmm, thanks. Here's a brush.
