Lesson 5 Arranging a Meeting

 

Dave: Dave Prakash.

Martina: Hi, Dave, it’s Martina. Listen, I need to discuss the designs for the new R300 series with you. When can we meet?

Dave: I can’t make it today. I’ve got meetings all day. How about Monday morning?

Martina: I’m visiting the new plant on Monday morning, but the afternoon is OK.

Dave: I’m probably taking time off in the afternoon, actually.

Martina: OK.Let me see…are you free on Thursday?

Dave: No, I’m visiting clients on Thursday morning and then I’m flying to Prague on Thursday afternoon.

Martina: Are you going to the trade fair?

Dave: Yes, that’s on Friday morning. I’m coming back on Friday afternoon. Look, what about Tuesday, for lunch?

Martina: No, I’m meeting the sales team on Tuesday and it’s all-day thing. That leaves Wednesday.

Dave: Wednesday looks OK at the moment, but don’t forget the strategy meeting at 10 o’clock.

Martina: Oh, that’s right, I’m going to that too. But I’m free after that. How does 12:30 sound? We could have lunch.

Dave: Great, we can talk and eat on Wednesday. Now I must run. I’ve got a meeting with the Finance Director.
