1Tom, we need to finalise the plan for the student welcome evening next month.

2I agree. First of all, how much money do we actually have left?

3We have three hundred pounds, sorry, the treasurer said four hundred and fifty.

4That is more than I expected. Can we afford the live band then?

5The band costs two hundred pounds, so it fits, but only just.

6Fine. Now, about the venue, did you speak to the events office?

7Yes, we can have the main hall on the twenty-first, not the twentieth as planned.

8Good. We should also order the food. How many students are coming?

9About eighty, so let us order food for ninety people to be safe.

10Sensible. Could you ask the caterer to send a quote to my email?

11Sure, is your address still t dot harper at cityuni dot ac dot uk?

12No, it has changed. It is now t dot j harper, with a j after the t.
