James, Ryan and Chris meet at James’s house on the Thursday
and they all discuss what they’re doing at the weekend. They
spend time talking about what they could possibly do while
playing Xbox.
JAMES
Guys, what’s everyone doing this weekend
then?
CHRIS
Not a lot, probably just watch the
football.
Chris picks up the Xbox controller and switches on the
console
RYAN
I was thinking of actually doing something
this weekend.
CHRIS
Like what though, because I haven’t got any money to spend
at the moment.
RYAN
Why don’t we go to the forest or something and just have a
laugh.
JAMES
To be fair Ryan, that’s not a bad shout we could go on
Friday as well cause it’s an inset day.
CHRIS
I’m actually down for that to be fair
RYAN
Let’s do It then I say we go to the new forest because I
know a good spot where we could chill.
JAMES

3. 3
Would anyone us come or is it just going to be us 3?
CHRIS
It would be a bit boring with just us
don’t you think James?
JAMES
I think it would be alright, anyway I don’t know anyone
else that would come because they’re doing other stuff this
weekend
CHRIS
Why do you always have to be so boring there’s loads of
people that would come?
JAMES
Absolute Rubbish!
RYAN
Come on now ladies settle down, I’ll ask
if anyone else wants to come.
CHRIS
Has Anyone got a tent that we can stay in?
JAMES
I have but it only fits two people in so you would have to
go and buy one.
CHRIS
Can we split the price of the tent because they’re like 30?
RYAN
Yeah sure
JAMES
I’m not paying any money towards it I’ve got my own tent.
CHRIS
Why are you being so unreasonable, it’s not fair that I
have to pay for you as well.

JAMES
Fine if you’re going to be a baby about it I’ll put some
money towards it.
