— Well, you said anywhere.

— Yes, but you must be sensible. It'll be too hot there.

— Where shall I put it then?

— Bring it under the tree here. That's better.

— Now perhaps we can have some tea.

— Here's the sugar.

— Thank you. That's your cup.

— Thank you. This is very pleasant.

— Much. Where are you going?

— I'm going indoors. For a bit of peace and quiet.
