Q

M: The shelf

A

You dad? The racing driver?

36
Q

M: No, he’s not a racing driver

A

He’s not, I thought..

37
Q

M: I only said that. I was trying to impress you. I thought it sounded more interesting

A

Oh. What does he do then?

38
Q

M: he’s a brickie

A

Oh

39
Q

M: But he’s not working regular… But she does work

A

Where’s that?

40
Q

M: Tescos

A

Aha. Maybe that’s why she’s so fond of shelves

41
Q

M: Pardon?

A

Nothing

42
Q

M: No, she’s on the tills

A

Right

43
Q

M: Did you find that person you were looking for last week? The one you needed for your office?

A

No, not yet. I’m seeing one or two more on Monday

44
Q

M: I hope you’re not planning to take them all out for dinner here

A

Oh no. It was only that particular one. She was very experienced. It would have been quite something to have got her

45
Q

M: Did you manage to catch up with her?

A

No- she’s- not answering my calls

46
Q

M: Probably fed up with having to pay for her own dinner

A

Oh no, I’m sure she… Anyway, we were offering so little she probably wouldn’t have been interested

47
Q

M: What do you do in your office

A

We- we’ve just started a magazine. Sort of arts magazine for this area. Reviews, articles, interviews. There’s a lot going on, masses. But the local press just isn’t interested most of the time. Lots of talent around, you’d be surprised. We thought we’d try and encourage it

48
Q

M: Right. Do people buy it? The Magazine?

A

Well. We need more to keep going. But we’ve started well. We’re six percent above our budgeted circulation figures… Oh, look. I brought you volume two, in case you wanted to have a look. Here. It’s for you

49
Q

M: Thank you… Would you like me to pay for it

A

Oh no. Complimentary edition. Please

50
Q

M: Thank you… Incidentally, I am paying for this evening, though

A

Oh no, please, I insist

51
Q

M: No, you paid last week. Fair’s fair

A

All right. We’ll see

52
Q

M: It’s not a bad place, not too stuffy. You come here often?

A

Yes. It’s my parent’s favourite restaurant. We used to come here as kids. They used to bring us

53
Q

M: Us?

A

My brother and I. My older brother Glyn

54
Q

M: You like to go where your parents go, do you?

A

Not always, no

55
Q

M: Is your brother married

A

Oh yes

56
Q

M: Has he got any children?

A

Yes one

57
Q

M: How old

A

oh, about four. or so. a boy. Timothy. Timmy

58
Q

M: You’re an uncle then

A

RIght

59
Q

M: What does he do? Your brother? Does he run arty magazines as well?

A

Oh no. He’s with our firm. With my father’s firm

60
Q

M: What do they do?

A

Well, we’re originally builders but we’re also transport and we build leisure centres

61
Q

M: Big then?

A

Pretty big. I don’t have anything to do with it

62
Q

M: What do they call themselves

A

Er… Stratton’s. Stratton unity

63
Q

M: Strattons?

A

Yes

64
Q

M: What, The strattons

A

Yes

65
Q

M: Hang on. That’s your name then, isn’t it?

A

Yes. Adam Stratton. Yes

66
Q

M: And you own that

A

No, I don’t. My family does. My father

67
Q

M: You must be rollong

A

Oh no. Well, they are. I’m not

68
Q

M: They’re massive, Stratton’s. Huge

A

Pretty big

69
Q

M: Bloody hell. Why am I offering to pay for your dinner? I didn’t realize I was going out with a stratton

A

Wel…

70
Q

M: If you don’t mind me saying so, you could afford a better jacket couldn’t you?

A

Oh, don’t you?

71
Q

M: It’s terrible. Even my dad wouldn’t be seen dead in that

A

I’m sorry

72
Q

It’s all right…Even if I’d had done, and I’m still paying half

A

Fair enough. And I’m not right. You don’t get rich running arts magazines

73
Q

M: Very Much. thank you?

A

We wanted to know. What was the fruit. The lady’s fruit?

74
Q

M: I don’t know about that… He’ s a bit cheeky, isn’t he

A

Oh, don’t mind him. He’s always-

75
Q

M: he’s mad as well

A

No, he’s

76
Q

A: Passion fruit, I fetch your main course

A

Please… Sorry about that

77
Q

M: It’s all right really. It was funny. You say your family have been coming here for years?

A

Oh yes, since before I was born

78
Q

M: You must have a funny family then

A

Yes, fairly funny

79
Q

M: I’d like to meet them. You know, just to meet them, not-

A

Yes. Maybe. I mean

80
Q

M: I don’t have to look like this… I mean, if you think that would frighten them

A

No. of course not

81
Q

M: I’ve got a proper dress somewhere. My mother brought it me. A really boring one, I promise. It’d go with your jacket

A

I’m burning this tomorrow

82
Q

M: No don’t. I really like it. It reminds me of our dog’s blanket

A

Oh, leave it out…

83
Q

M: Sorry

A

You have a dog

84
Q

M: No, just a blanket

A

ah

85
Q

M: he got run over. But my mother’s sentimental. She still keeps his blanket

A

On a shelf?

86
Q

M: Where else… Oh well. The night is young, as they say?

A

It is
