The flatmates are shocked when the new phone bill arrives – it’s one hundred and sixty three pounds!! But who made all those international calls?
Tim: | Here’s the mail. |
Helen: | Another bill I bet you. Everyone ready to stump up their quarter share of the phone bill? |
Alice: | What’s the damage? |
Helen: | A hundred and sixty-three pounds, eighty-seven pence! |
Tim: | That can’t be right. |
Alice: | That’s about hundred pounds more than our usual bill. |
Khalid: | Yeah, but with the crunchy credit and everything, our bills were bound to start getting higher. |
Alice: | Yes but not this high. |
Helen: | There are a lot of international calls here. |
Alice: | Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Bahrain, Saudi. Khalid, are these calls all yours? |
Khalid: | I was feeling homesick on my birthday. |
Tim: | That’s fine mate. Now we know who has to foot the bill. |
Khalid: | But I thought you said we always shared the bills evenly in this flat…? |
