#Person1#: Hi, come on in. Can I take your coat?
#Person2#: Sure, thanks. I brought you a bottle of wine as well.
#Person1#: You're the first guest to arrive. I'll just put your coat away and then I'll get you something to drink.
#Person2#: Should I take my shoes off?
#Person1#: Whatever you prefer.
#Person2#: This is a very nice place. How long have you been living here now?
#Person1#: Just over three weeks. Would you like a drink?
#Person2#: Sure, what do you have?
#Person1#: I've got white wine, red wine, gin and tonics, ginger ale, lemonade, orange juice, and sprite.
#Person2#: I'll have a glass of red wine please.
#Person1#: One glass of red wine coming up!
#Person2#: So how many people are coming for the dinner tonight?
#Person1#: There's just going to be 6 of us tonight.
#Person2#: Oh, I thought there were going to be eight. who isn't coming?
#Person1#: Marcia and Paul called to cancel at the last moment. Paul was running late and Marcia wasn't feeling well.
#Person2#: That's too bad. They're such good company.
#Person1#: I think there's someone at the door. Excuse me while I go and get that.
#Person1# is hosting a dinner and #Person2# is the first to arrive. #Person1# offers #Person2# a glass of red wine and tells #Person2# two of their friends called to cancel. #Person2# thinks it's a pity.
