Easy Readers/A1-At the baker

From Wikiversity

Edward is at Francisca's Bakery

E: Good morning, it's cold out, isn't it?

F: Yes, very cold for the time of year. What can I get you?

E: Oh, a large brown loaf, please.

F: I've only got small brow, I'm afraid, or large white. The Russian ryebread is nice.

E: No, my wife says it gets in her teeth, and the kids just leave the crusts everywhere.

F: Oh well, I don't know then.

E: Me neither.

F: Maybe they would like some cakes?

E: I'm on a diet, I don't want them eat nice food while I have to watch. The small brown loaf is fine. Give me that.

F: Yes of course. Come earlier tomorrow. That will be two pounds please.

E: Here you go, here is my card. Is contactless ok? I think my card is working.

F: But my machine isn't.

E: Oh no what a mess.

F: Don't worry, pay me tomorrow. And say hello to your wife when you see her.

E: Yes of course. And thank you, that is really very helpful of you indeed.

F: Bye now and take care.

E: Bye, see you in the morning, bright and early.
