Alice, Tim and Helen are writing an advert for a new flatmate.
| Alice: | Right, how does this sound? Wanted: student or young professional… |
| Tim: | … male student or young professional. |
| Alice: | Ok. From the top. Wanted: male student or young professional for bright, sunny room in flatshare. |
| Tim: | … in mixed flatshare … |
| Alice: | … for bright, sunny room in mixed flatshare. Must be clean, tidy and easy-going. Close to shops, pubs and buses. Reasonable rent. |
| Helen: | Shouldn’t we say something about the cat? He might be allergic. |
| Alice: | Ooh, yeah, good point. Must be clean, tidy, easy-going and must like cats. Ooh, and shall we say something about, you know, the dishwasher, tv, broadband. |
| Helen: | Yeah, put ‘all mod cons’. |
| Alice: | Ok, mixed flatshare with all mod cons. Shall I read it back to you? |
| Tim: | Yeah, and then call the small ads department at the Gazette. Or we could go with the Courier. |
