Mike: Mum, I’m in a terrible hurry. Can I have my lunch right away? We’re
going to Shaldon for a game of golf. The boys are picking me up at one
o’clock, and I’ve promised to be ready on time. Gosh, it’s twenty to one al-
ready! Is that clock right?
Mum: No, it’s ten minutes fast. It’s not quite half past twelve yet. But it
doesn’t make any difference – I’ve just put our lunch in the oven and it won’t
be ready for more than half an hour.
Mike: Mmm! It smells marvellous! Is it ham and egg pie? I can’t wait for
that now though. Put some by for me and I’ll have it this evening. What can I
have straight away? I’m starving.
Mum: I can make you a mushroom omelette in five minutes or you can have
what’s left of this pork pie. It looks a bit stale, though – try a bit first.
Mike: It doesn’t taste too bad. I’ll have this with some cheese and tomatoes.
It’s not much of a lunch but at least I’ll be ready in time.
Mum: I’m used to your racing in and out and expecting a meal within five
minutes, but this is not a restaurant with a 24 hour service and I’m not a ma-
gician. You just have to take pot luck, if you can’t make your arrangements
in advance and give me some warning of your movements.
Mike: Well, it’s a rotten restaurant and I’m going to complain to the man-
ager. If I die of food poisoning, they’ll put you in prison for years.
