'Sorry to keep you waiting,' Flossie bleated.
'They didn't have any more pain au chocolat so I got you a cinnamon whirl,' Lefty replied.
'Oh, that's fine!' Flossie said.
'Positive meeting?' Lefty asked.
'Thought so,' Flossie replied. 'Appreciate you asking. Missed your input.'
'Gave me a chance to sort out some paperwork,' Lefty explained.
'True!' Flossie bleated. 'Sure it needs doing. Leave it with you.'
'We're all unloaded,' Lefty added. 'So, next thing to do is scout out locations, work out camera angles, that sort of thing.'
'Great!' Flossie replied. 'Although always bearing in mind, we're not actually making a film.'
'Absolutely,' Lefty nodded. 'It's just to help us with the cover story. Gets us access to the right places.'
'Top pirating!' Flossie replied. 'In passing, not pushing you, any progress with the megaphone?'
'Custard and jelly removed but Mum said there's still a strawberry stuck in the switch.'
'But progress,' Flossie observed. 'Even a small step in the right direction is worthwhile.'
'That's what I told her,' Lefty replied.
'Which leaves us with?'
'Casting,' Lefty bleated.
'Hmm,' Flossie said. 'Any reply to the flyer?'
'Sort of,' Lefty replied. 'I did get a very polite message but based on where they're sailing from they should have been here by now.'
