Dialogue 3

W: There and you can see the wide open spaces of the Prairies. Later today we're stopping off in Winnipeg for the night. There is a trip to the fort and then an evening meal.
M: Er, I wonder if I could ask you something?
W: Yes, of course.
M: Well, would it be possible ... er...
W: Yes?
M: Would it be possible to stay over an extra night in Winnipeg?
W: I'm sorry, but we have to keep to the timetable,sir.
M: No, what I meant was can I stay an extra night in Winnipeg and catch up with the train later? I have relations I'd like to look up there. They could drop me off at the next place later on.
W: Oh, I see.The problem is tomorrow morning we set off very early--we are going all the way to Alberta. It's a very long way...But you could stay with your relatives tonight as long as you get back to the train before seven in the morning.
M: Thanks very much.
