- Good morning!
- Good morning, madam! Can I help you?
- Oh, I hope so, erm, someone of the hotel suggested I came down here and arrange to hire some bikes from you.
- Oh, yes. A lot of people come down from the hotel
- Yes.
- It's very popular, yes.
- Yes, well. We have whole holiday here for few days and they said that could be a good way of getting to see the island.
- Well, it's certainly yes. I mean you go that much further on a push bike or a motorized bike
- Ah, so you have two kinds of bikes basicly
- We've got two kinds but most people take the motorized because you can get around faster. You can also go on the beach if you like
- How old, erm, do you have to be to drive one of those things?
- Er, there is a minimum age
- Yes, what's that?
- Sixteen
- Ah, yes
- But that's only for the driver
- Ah-huh, So... You can take passengers?
- Certainly
- If I want two and hire them tomorrow? Would it be any problem? Can I just come along and get them tomorrow morning?
- No problem at all. As you can see we've got hundreds here
- Yes, it's true, yeah
- And can I hire them just .. just for the morning?
- Er, that's unfortunately not possible. We only do hire for the whole day
- Oh, okay. So I probably see you first into my morning then
- Lovely!
- Thanks a lot!
- be nice to see you then
