English Conversation 101
"Lovely weather we're having. "
"Yes, lovely weather, isn't it?"
"It is."
"Not quite as nice as last week though."
"No, not quite….but still, we musn't grumble. It could be worse."
"Yes, it could be much worse. Last year we didn't even have a summer."
"It was miserable, wasn't it? It didn't stop raining once."
"No, not once. But after that dry spring, we needed the rain."
"Yes, the plants in my garden were all dying."
"You haven't had to worry about the lack of rain this spring."
"No, but I would like to see the nice weather hold a bit longer."
"I think it will. The weather forecaster said not to expect anymore rain until next week."
"Oh, that's good news indeed."
"Yes, very good news."
"Well, cheerio. It was nice talking to you."
"And you."
