AT THE HOTEL

At about 1 o’clock in the afternoon Mr. Jackson arrived at the Tavistock Hotel. A hotel porter took Jackson’s suit-case and showed him to the reception-desk. Jackson told the receptionist that the Ukrainian Trade Delegation had reserved a room in his name a few days before. The receptionist checked that and said that they could let him have a nice room on the third floor. After that the receptionist gave Jackson a form and asked him to fill it in.

Mr. Jackson wrote his name, address, nationality and occupation on the form and gave it back. Then the porter took the key to Jackson’s room and they went to the lift. In a minute they were on the third floor. The porter unlocked the door, brought in the suit-case and asked if that was all. Jackson thanked him, gave him a tip and the porter went out. Jackson unpacked his suit-case and rang the bell for a chambermaid because he wanted to have his suit pressed.

Chambermaid: Good afternoon, sir. What can I do for you?

Jackson: Good afternoon. Could I have my jacket and trousers pressed?

Chambermaid: Very good, sir. I think I can do it right away.

Jackson: Thank you. By the way, could I have an extra blanket? I’m afraid I’ll be cold at night as the weather is damp today.

Chambermaid: I’ll attend to it, sir.

Jackson: Thank you. I wonder if the restaurant is open now.

Chambermaid: Yes, sir. The restaurant serves breakfast from eight to ten, lunch from twelve to two thirty and dinner from six to eight.

Jackson: Thank you very much.
