AT THE RAILWAY STATION
Hello, Mr. Blake. Wfe're are not late, are we? Hello, Jane. No, you're not late. I was a bit early. When does the train leave?
It leaves at four twenty-seven (4.27). We don't need to hurry; we'll be able to catch it. Is it an express? No, it's a stopping train. Shall I buy the tickets, Mr. Blake? Oh, yes, I forgot about them. There's the booking-office. Do you know how much the fare is? Seventy-five pence for a single ticket and one pound fifty for a return. But ask for a weekend return. That might be cheaper. And ask for a time-table, too. You'll need it on Sunday.
All right. I'll meet you at the entrance to the platform. Which platform is ours?
Platform sixteen. I'll take your suitcase. Which one's yours? That one's mine.
Hurry up. The train leaves at four twenty-seven. (4.27)
From platform sixteen?
