Dora: Thank you very much Thekla and Ulrich! It was a wonderful evening with you! And your salmon parfait was heavenly.
Thekla: We loved the time with you very much too.
Dora: I hope we didn't overstay our welcome. But I had such a good time that I wanted it to last for ever.
Thekla: Of course not. We loved every minute of it.
Dora: Maybe I overdid it a bit with wine but I hadn't had such a tasty gutedel for years.
Thekla: Oh well. We were all slightly merry.
Dora: Definitely not you. And you looked fantastic in this black dress! This sort, you know, of quiet elegance.
Thekla: Thank you. I think you looked lovely too.
Dora: Oh Thekla... So sorry for being so underdressed! It was stupid of me just to show up wearing jeans and a sweatshirt.
Thekla: Not at all. I'm glad you felt relaxed.
Dora: After a while I did. As usual you created such a lovely atmosphere. You are a perfect hostess.
Thekla: Thank you. I'm glad you felt so much at home in our place.
Dora: Richard will have to apologise himself. It was absolutely crass manners to go and fall asleep on your sofa. But you know he has been overworking for weeks now.
Thekla: No problem at all. I'm glad we managed to wake him up and put him into a taxi.
Dora: I had some problem getting him out of it :))
Thekla: Did fall asleep again?
Dora: Sure! In fact he's still asleep.
Thekla: Good it's Saturday and he can stay at home.
Dora: We'll take it easy today. But poor you! You have to clear after the party!
Thekla: It was taken care of last night.
Dora: Do you mean we were washing up and clearing up the mess after we'd left?
Thekla: We always do. Ulrich is very good at washing up.
Dora: What time did you turn in?
Thekla: Oh I don't know. It doesn't matter as long as we had a good time together.
Dora: Yes it was fantastic.Thank you so much again.
Thekla: It was a pleasure to have you in.
Dora: Thank you.
Dora thanks Thekla and Ulrich for an evening. Dora pays Thekla compliments. Richard fell asleep on the sofa during the dinner. Ulrich and Thekla washed and cleared up the same night after the dinner.
