Grandmother:         Read Jimmy’s card to me please, Mary.

Mary:                    “I have just arrived in Scotland and I’m staying at a Youth Hostel.”

Grandmother:         Eh?

Mary:                    He says he’s just arrived in Scotland.  He says he’s staying at a Youth Hostel.

You know he’s a member of the Y.H.A.

Grandmother:         The what?

Mary:                    The Y.H.A., mother. The Youth Hostel’s Association.

Grandmother:         What else does he say?

Mary:                    “I’ll write a letter soon. I hope you are all well.”

Grandmother:         What? Speak up, Mary. I’m afraid I can’t hear you.

Mary:                    He says he’ll write a letter soon. He hopes we are all well. “ Love, Jimmy.”

Grandmother:         Is that all? He doesn’t say very much, does he?

Mary:                    He can’t write very much on a card, mother.
