Where are Joan’s family are going to spend summer? [originaltext]W: Charles, I w

W: Charles, I want to ask if you know anything about hotels on the Costa Brava.
M: Why? No, I’m afraid I can’t be very much help to you there.
W: Well, it’s just that we’ve been thinking of taking the family to Spain this summer and at this rather late stage we’re trying to organize ourselves a suitable hotel. But I thought that you’d been to the Costa Brava.
M: It’s certainly a bit late. But have you looked at the ads?
W: Well, yes. As a matter of fact I was reading one ad only this morning in the Sunday paper which sounded marvelous.
M: For a hotel?
W: Yes. Just outside Barcelona. It said that this hotel war right on the beach, and that’s essential as far as we’re concerned.
M: I know just what you mean.
W: And all the rooms have balconies facing the sea and overlooking the beach.
M: Expensive?
W: No. That war the remarkable thing about it. You know, even allowing for a bit of exaggeration in the ad, it seemed to have a lot to offer.
M: Which is unlikely with yours, from the sound of it.
W: Well, yes, but you can never tell, can you? And the food’s good.
M: Of course. The only way to find out for certain is to go and try it. And that’s taking rather a risk.
W: Yes, I agree with you.
