| Man: |
I'll get this round, what are you having? |
| Woman: |
I'll have a pint of Guinness please. I'll go and find seats. |
| Man: |
Two Guinness please! |
| Waitress: |
Pints or glasses? |
| Man: |
Two pints. |
| Waitress: |
That will be 6.80 please. |
| Man: |
Here you go, thanks. |

| Man: |
So, how long have you been in Ireland? |
| Woman: |
Two weeks, what about you? |
| Man: |
I arrived yesterday. What do you think so far? |
| Woman: |
It seems very nice, the weather is unpredictable and when it's raining I get a bit homesick. The smoking ban is a bit strange, having to go outside for a fag, especially when it's raining! But everyone chats to each other out there, so it's not so bad, it's a good way to meet people! |
| Man: |
Oh, well I don't smoke so it is o.k. for me. Are you going to the nightclub later? |
| Woman: |
I don't know. I have to ring my friends and see if they want to go. Have you ever heard about 'rounds?' |
| Man: |
Yeah, I've read that a round is where you take it in turns to buy a drink for the rest of the group and yourself. |
| Woman: |
What happens if you don't buy a round? |
| Man: |
I think it's very rude and not many people do that. If you don't want to be involved in a round, then say so at the beginning of the evening. |
| Woman: |
That's good to know! Thanks. |
