Did you like it too? Brian: I tried to understand it, but I could not! Linda: Yes, they used many slang words. The actors were really good though! Brian: By the way, I saw your sister, yesterday, after the match. Linda: Yes, she was at the match too. She liked it a lot. Brian: But afterwards, it started raining! What did you do then? Linda: I hurried home. What did you do afterwards? Brian: Hahaha We played darts! Your sister´s boyfriend is very nice! Linda: I preferred my sister´s last boyfriend. He was also an actor. Brian: The actors´ achievements were really great, but the leading actor’s accent was terrible! Hahaha Linda: You are right. I particularly liked the end of the film, but the seats at the cinema were, however, somewhat uncomfortable. Brian: That’s why I already look forward to my own couch. Hahahaha! Linda: Yes, it is certainly more comfortable. I already look forward to seeing your place! Brian: I’ll pick you up tomorrow from your office! Linda: Great! See you tomorrow! Oh, it is raining again.
