Cathreen: Dear Ruth, it was so wonderful to meet you again after such a long time. Thank you for lovely coffee and liqueur. I enjoy so much our coffee chats. And of course it was a relief to hear all that optimistic news about Peter.
Cathreen: Many thanks for this lovely bag of cookies and the calendar!

Cathreen: In the kitchen I can better keep an eye on all these cats.
Ruth: Hello Cathreen, it was a most pleasant coffee klatch, wasn't it? We are happy that you like the cats' calendar, it looks good alongside your kitchen cupboards.
Ruth: So we'll be seeing you this afternoon after 3 pm when the Munsels come. See you later then!
Cathreen: Oh Ruth... I think I'm developing a cold! Tight nose and painful throat. I think I'd better stay at home, if only because of Peter. Sorry!
Ruth: What a pity! Pete was so looking forward to see you. But you're right. Better safe than sorry. He had just made it with the last bout of flu.
Ruth: Thank you for being so considerate.
Ruth: Get well soon!
Cathreen: Thank you.
Cathreen enjoyed her meet with Ruth and the presents she was given. Cathreen cancels this afternoon's meeting as she is feeling unwell.
