Jeremy Brown : Man to man.
Juan Cervantes : So right. I have meet a beautiful senorita.
Jeremy Brown : No no no, I have met a beautiful girl!
Juan Cervantes : Just like me. What's her name?
Jeremy Brown : No no no, I haven't met anyone. I was merely correcting your English.
Juan Cervantes : Spanish.
Jeremy Brown : Juan!
Juan Cervantes : So right, so right. Well, I want to take Rita, that's her name, away for the weekend holiday, but she lives with her mother, and she thinks maybe her mother not let her come away with me. What can I do?
Jeremy Brown : Why don't you ask her mother?
Juan Cervantes : I don't want to go away with her mother!
Jeremy Brown : Ask Rita's mother if you can go away with her on holiday.
Juan Cervantes : You think she say yes?
Jeremy Brown : I have no idea. What are your intentions?
Juan Cervantes : Por favour?
Jeremy Brown : I'll be blunt. Are you hoping to get Rita into your room?
Juan Cervantes : No.
Jeremy Brown : Good.
Juan Cervantes : Not my room, her room! We booked 1 room!
Juan Cervantes : Well, in that case I can't help you. You'll just have to make your own decision.
Jeremy Brown : So right.
Jeremy Brown : Yes.

Jeremy Brown : Ali, what are you doing?
Ali Nadim : Ranjeet and I are having a good game.
Ranjeet Singh : We are putting empty tins on a piece of wood. And for only 5p, you can be throwing 3 ballies to be knocking them down.
Jeremy Brown : Are there any prizes?
Ali Nadim : Oh yes, please. If you are knocking 3 tins down, you are winning one pound.
Jeremy Brown : I don't want to worry you, Ali. But you could lose money on that.
Ali Nadim : Oh no. You are being mistaken.
Ranjeet Singh : Nobody is knocking down even one tin.
Jeremy Brown : Why not?
Ali Nadim : We are nailing the tins to the piece of wood!
Jeremy Brown : Very ingenious.
