W: Good afternoon, Davidson‟s Plumbing. Hold the line, please. Sorry to have kept you waiting. Can I help you?
M: Yes. Is that Davidson‟s Plumbing?
W: Yes, it is.
M: I‟d like a plumber to come look at my toilet, please. It seems to be blocked.
W: But our plumber is out working and he may not be able to make it there until tomorrow. Is that OK?
M: Not really. We‟re in a fix because we‟ve only got one toilet. Is it possible for him to come sooner?
W: Mm. It‟s not likely, I‟m sorry. He‟s completely tied up with appointments all day ... but look, if you‟d like to hang on a minute, I‟ll try to get in touch with him and see if he has a moment to spare.
M: OK. Thank you.
W: Hello ... Well, you‟re in luck. He‟s had a good run with his work today and his last appointment was called off, so he can fit you in at about 5 o‟clock.
M: Oh, great! Could you give me a rough idea of the cost?
W: No, sorry, not until he sorts out the cause of the problem, but don‟t worry, he‟ll fill you in on the cost before he goes ahead with the work.
M: OK. Thanks very much for your help.
W: You‟re welcome. Could I have your name and address, please?
M: Yes, it‟s Mr. Ford.
