Hi, Áine. How was your weekend?
It was very nice indeed, thank you. I took it easy.
Did you? What did you do?
Well, I stayed in bed on Saturday morning. I caught up on sleep and got up at midday.
Good for you! Didn't you have to do housework?
I tidied up the garden on Sunday but I enjoyed that. What about you? Did you rest at the weekend?
I didn't have the time! I had to take the kids to the swimming pool on Saturday morning and then I had plenty of tasks to do in the house.
What did you have to do?
I had to paint the sitting room, wash the window and fix the dinner. And then on Sunday I went shopping with my wife and I washed the car.
You were really busy, then!

Hello, mate. I haven't seen you for a while.
Sorry about that. I wanted to come to the pub but I couldn't, because I had work to do at home.
Why? Didn't you (pl) finish the house a couple of months ago?
I didn't have the chance to finish the garden because of the bad weather.
I understand. Do you have green fingers?
I suppose so, since I grew up on a farm.
Me too, but I don't have a clue about gardening, as I never had an interest in it when I was growing up.
Why weren't you interested?
Because of the insects, and because of the dirt. And because every plant I plant dies!
That's a pity.
