They want to go on holiday because [originaltext]W: I think it’s time for us to

W: I think it’s time for us to get away from it all Matt.
M: Get away from it all? Go away and leave all our work behind? Where are we going?
W: Well I thought we could get away from it all and go on holiday!
M: I love holidays. Where are we going?
W: Well Matt, we don’t have to plan a holiday that carefully. We could just take off somewhere.
M: Take off somewhere - what? just leave now without planning anything?
W: Sure. Why not? We could just go to the travel agent today and buy some tickets. We’ve been working hard presenting this programme - we deserve a holiday!
M: Right! I’m going to pack my bags now!
W: Matt, I’ve just been to the travel agent and I’ve got us tickets to go to the Maldives.
M: This is just too exciting. So, when do we set off?
W: The plane leaves tomorrow afternoon so we need to set off for the airport at 1 lam.
M: Just let me write that down so I don’t forget. So, we leave at 11 am. Do we stop off anywhere on the way or are the flights direct?
W: Well, there weren’t any direct flights, but we are very lucky. With these tickets we can stop off in Sri Lanka. So we can stop and spend two days there on our way to the Maldives.
M: Vicki - you are brilliant. I’ve always wanted to go there. So we stop off in Sri Lanka. And, just one more thing...when do we get back?
W: We’ll return home in ten days time ....
M: Wow, so we set off tomorrow afternoon, we stop off in Sri Lanka for 2 days on our way to the Maldives, and we get back in ten days time.
