Joe: Hi Kels, what you up to lately?
Kelly: Oh my God, Joe Johnson, it's been YEARS!
Joe: Yes, I've been working abroad for the last 3 years, Italy, actually!
Kelly: Wow! Was that with your girlfriend, Josie?
Joe: Yes, we actually got married out there 2 years ago! Unfortunately, it didn't last that long and we split after a year and a half.
Kelly: So sorry to hear that, Joe! What happened?
Joe: Well, she was working all over the place and I hardly saw her, I was staying in her parent's house and working at her brother's garage.
Kelly: Hmm, I can sense a "but" coming up!
Joe: Yes, well, I'm not proud of this, but her sister came back after Uni and one night we got a bit tiddly on Prosecco and brandy, not a great combo!
Kelly: I think I can guess the rest of the sorry tale. Why were they all living out there anyway? 
Joe: Well, if you remember, Josie' s last name is Andellino and her dad had gone back to where he'd come from to look after his mum and dad. Anyway, I came clean to Josie and told her what happened. We struggled on for a few more months, but she was away so often and we decided to call it a day.
Kelly: Now you're back in lovely Newport after the splendour of Rome!
Joe: Right enough. Got my old job back with Tony too! How's the bank?
Kelly: Still there! I've moved into training and my line manager is retiring soon, soon, you never know, another promotion may be on the cards!
Joe: Pleased for you, Kels! You are a real people person!
Kelly: Thanks Joe! Now what about that drink?
Joe: Good memory, Kelly! Tell you what, I'll pop into the bank when it closes Friday and we'll decide then. Tony won't mind me nipping out half an hour early, I do plenty of overtime!
Kelly: Sounds ace, Joe! Looking forward to it!
Joe: Arriverderci, bella!
Kelly: See you, mate!
Joe got married but they split so he is back in Newport. Kelly works in the bank and is hoping for promotion. Joe will pop into the bank on Friday and they go out for a drink.
