Hello?
You get any reaction on that?
Let it go.
Oh, that's nice.
And do you think the library's the best?
I don't.
I don't think we'll want to.
Well, the library's a little crowded.
I just think they want to be there.
We'll be there.
The other crowds, if you find out when they arrive, they're probably 7.30.
We can look around.
If they arrive at 7.30, then we're not going around.
And then we just sit right inside.
Too hot for outside anyway.
I don't know what we're going to do, you know.
They sort of, they're corrupt sort of sitting in there every night.
Don't you think so?
Something I was thinking, I'm so pleased you brought up, that's great.
Is there anything else you could think of?
Like, I guess they won't be here Wednesday night, but we'll see.
Not that it will be.
Okay, I don't know what the fuck I'm seeing.
I didn't come to that reception, you know.
So, I stayed in the room, yeah.
And then, if something comes up, as I said, I'll go to the other place.
I'll run to the other place.
I'll run in Friday, and that's it.
I'll tell Pat, okay.
