The Nightmare of Packing
- We must be off in ten minutes. Have you packed everything?
- As good as … I need a couple of minutes to make sure that I haven’t forgotten anything.
- OK. And whose bags are these? These huge ones. Do you mean these are yours? Are you going on a students’ archaeological expedition in Greece with all this stuff?
- Don’t be silly. It’s me who’s leaving. Doesn’t that mean that the luggage is mine? I’ve packed the most essential things.
- Essential things ? let’s see … What’s in here ? An iron, a portable TV set, a dozen different lotions and shampoos, three pairs of high heels, lots of dresses…. And why have you packed two umbrellas, may I ask? In case it rains twice ?
- In case one gets broken or something. Don’t make me nervous before the flight, will you?
- All right, take everything you want if you feel happier with all these useless things. And, by the way, where is your ticket, passport, and insurance?
- Oh, gosh! I’ve nearly forgotten them! Thank you. Sometimes you can be very helpful.
