A Useful Gift |
Oleg Krasnov: Hello, Bob! Are you happy to leave for Portland? |
|
Bob Howard: |
Certainly, I am. I miss my family very much. I didn’t feel homesick a |
|
day ago, but now, when there are several hours till I fly away, I |
|
understand that I want to see my parents and sisters. |
Lena: |
Say them hello. We are waiting them in Khabarovsk any time they like. |
Bob: |
Thanks very much. I hope you’ll visit me earlier both in London and |
|
Arch Cape. |
Oleg: |
Sure. We are going to meet our partners in New York this summer. |
Lena: |
If nothing changes, we’ll visit you in Arch Cape. |
Bob: |
Great! Our cottage is always at your disposal. By the way, here are |
|
some books I want to present you. They can help you make your |
|
business profitable. |
Oleg: |
Thank you so much. I have already heard about this book by Bill |
|
Bryson. It is the one I want to study in details. |
Lena: |
We also have some gifts for you and your family. Look, aren’t they |
|
charming? |
