Appointments

Mr Hibberd’s office!

Hello, can I speak to Brian Hibberd, please?

I’m afraid he’s in a meeting until lunchtime. Can I take a message?

Well, I’d like to arrange an appointment to see him, please. It’s Peter Jefferson here.

Could you hold on for a minute, Mr Jefferson. I’ll just look in the diary . So when’s convenient for you?

Some time next week if possible. I gather he’s away the following week.

Yes, that’s right, he’s on holiday for a fortnight.

Well, I need to see him before he goes away. So would next Wednesday be okay?

Wednesday . let me see . he's out of the office all morning. But he's free in the afternoon, after about three.

Three o'clock is difficult. But I could make it after four.

So shall we say 4.15 next Wednesday , in Mr Hibberd's office?

Yes, that sounds fine. Thanks very much.

Okay, then. Bye.
