Smirnov: Is your wife a teacher too?

Morris: Yes, she is. She teaches French and Russian at the same school. We got

married in 1990 and spent our honeymoon in St. Petersburg, by the way.

Smirnov: So this isn’t your first visit to Russia.

Morris: Oh no, my wife and I have been here several times. The first time was in

1988. My wife - or rather my fiancee, for we were only engaged then - had to

interpret every word for me, but I’ve picked up enough Russian for everyday needs

in the meantime.

Smirnov: Have you any children?

Morris: Yes, two boys. One six and the other seven and a half.

Smirnov: Have you brought them with you?

Morris: No, they’re staying with my mother-in-law in Coventry. She’s a widow

and an old-age pensioner and loves looking after her grandchildren, even if it is

rather strenuous.

Smirnov: Well, Mr. Morris, I think I’ve taken up enough of your valuable time.

Thank you very much for being so helpful.

Morris: Oh, that’s all right. It’s been a pleasure.

Smirnov: Good-bye, Mr. Morris. Give my best wishes to your wife and, once

more, many thanks.

Morris: Good-bye.
