"John, rugby training was horrible."

"Hello to you too."

"I hated it."

"Yes, I'd love a cup of tea, thanks."

"John! Are you listening?"

"No, just one sugar, please."

"John! It was awful!"

"That's nice."

"I'm not going again."

"Fair enough."

"Why didn't you go?"

"I was busy."

"Updating your blog? Dull."

"No, actually, I was in the surgery, saving peoples' lives."

"But John, you don't work in A & E."

"Really. I hadn't noticed. Has the kettle boiled yet?"

"I'll come in and see what the surgery's like tomorrow, is that alright?"

"No."

"Why?"

"Not a hobby."

"But – "

"NO!"
