'They still haven't got any pain au chocolat,' Lefty said.
'Oh well,' Flossie replied, 'never mind, worse things happen at sea.'
'They do if we're around!' Lefty observed.
'True! Flossie giggled. '...Did they have any cinnamon whirls?'
'No,' Lefty bleated. 'Actually, they were out of nearly everything. Someone was saying they've been really busy of late.'
'Hmm,' Flossie replied.
Lefty consulted his clipboard. 'Well, that's all the casting done,' he said. 'Everything's ready!'
'Brilliant!' Flossie replied. 'Appreciate all the hard work you've put in.'
'If it's OK with you we'll set for the first scene?'
'Carry on!' Flossie said. 'Every confidence in you. Is there any sugar?'
'I didn't think you took any?' Lefty said.
'Don't normally,' Flossie replied, 'trying to keep the weight off. Just need a little boost.'
'White or brown?'
'Brown,' Flossie said. '...........................Nice island,' he added. 'Pretty castle.'
'Have you been around the gardens?' Lefty asked.
'No,' Flossie replied.
'I took Mum, she really enjoyed it.'
'I'll have to find time,' Flossie mused.
'There's a fountain,' Lefty added.
'Like a fountain,' Flossie said.
'Wasn't working,' Lefty replied.
'Oh!' Flossie bleated. '.......................Pity.'
