  Harry7: Hey there!
  Olivia: Hi, Harry, come and have a seat!
  Harry: OK – I’ll just get a coffee. Hang on ...
  Where’s Tony?
  Magda: He’s off sick.
  Olivia: And you’ll notice that there’s a new chef
  in here!
  Harry: Carlos! What’s he doing working here?
  Magda: He’s taken over while Tony’s away.
  Harry: Well, good on him – he’s always wanted
  his own restaurant! I guess this café will have to
  do for now.
  Olivia: Yeah. It’s good experience for him!
  Harry: Carlos! Hey, Carlos! Could I have a
  coffee, mate2?
  Harry: Carlos? Hello!? ... Well, I hope he’s a
  good chef, because he’s a terrible waiter!
  Olivia: Oh, go on. Give him a break!
  Magda: Yeah – it’s really busy in here right now.
  Be patient!
  Harry: Busy? Yeah – tell me about it!
  Everywhere is today – I couldn’t find anywhere
  to park my car. I had to leave it miles away.
  Olivia: Park your car? I thought you took your
  bike everywhere!
  Harry: Well, I used to, but sometimes it’s just
  easier to drive, isn’t it?
  Magda: Lazy!
  Harry: I’m not lazy! I do lots of sport – play
  football every week.
  Olivia: Do you drive to the football pitch?
  Harry: Erm, yeah … Usually ...
  Olivia: You should use your bike more often. It’s
  better for you, and for the environment!
  Johnny: Hello, all! Hey, is that Carlos behind the
  counter?
  All: Yes, it is.
  Johnny: What’s he doing there?
  Olivia: Long story!
  Johnny: Blimey ... Have you seen the traffic out
  there?
  Olivia: Not you as well?!
  Johnny: Me what?
  Olivia: Driving!
  Johnny: Of course I drive. How else would I get
  around?
  Magda: I always use public transport. It’s very
  good here in London, even if it’s quite expensive.
  Olivia: Not as expensive as a car.
  Harry: That’s true.
  Olivia: You should all cycle more!
  Johnny: I’m not cycling. It’s tiring, and
  dangerous!
  Harry: And the weather here is terrible – cycling
  in the rain isn’t any fun!
  Magda: That’s true. That’s why I get the tube or
  the bus.
  Olivia: Well, I think you should all think about
  your health and the future of the planet8!
  Harry: Yeah, yeah, yeah ... whatever ...
  Olivia: It’s important! Cars make so much
  pollution!
  Magda: Yeah – Olivia’s right!
  Johnny: Scientists are finding9 ways to stop
  pollution – that’s their job.
  Olivia: Maybe, but we should all help to help the
  planet!
  Harry: I don’t know about the planet. I just think
  right now we should try to help Carlos!
