Dinny: Hello dad! How are you doing?
Dad: Hello daughter! Thanks, I'm fine. And how are you, the two of you?
Dinny: Micky has been overworking a bit, you know him, but he's fine. I'm kept reasonably busy but working from home is sooooo much easier. I love it.
Dad: Happy to hear it then. Micky will never change, I know.
Dinny: Dad, I was thinking about Xmas this year. Have you got any plans? We thought it would be great if you came over and spend the time with us. What do you think?
Dad: Oh Dinny. So nice of you to think about your old father. As a matter of fact I just wanted to let you know that I have already booked my Xmas trip.
Dinny: Not again! You got so ill last year in Mexico! Where are you going this time?
Dad: To Sri Lanca. Or if you want Ceylon.
Dinny: Gracious me! You're getting more and more adventurous. But you aren't going alone, are you? It's a package, isn't it?
Dad: It was a super offer from my insurance and they even give me a course of ayurveda treatments at a base rate of 10$ each. And yes, it is all-inclusive. Including a transfer from my doorstep and back.
Dinny: And much will they graciously accept from you in return for all these goodies?
Dad: It's 22 days, counting in the flights, for 2345$. Not bad eh?
Dinny: Not bad at all indeed. But it's such a long flight!
Dad: Not that long, 10 hours.
Dinny: In that case, dad, our invitation doesn't look attractive at all. But we'll phone before you take off to the skies?
Dad: Certainly my child. I'll give you a ring in a week or so before departure. Take care!
Dinny: So long Dad!
