Hi, friend. Have you got plans tonight? What about going out?
That's a good idea. What would you like to do?
I don't mind. There's a new film on in the cinema?
Sorry, I've seen it. I went on Sunday.
No matter. I guess there will be live music in the pub in the square. What do you think about that?
That would be great but does that pub serve food? I will need a bite of food, I suppose.
No, but there is a nice Thai restaurant next door. We could go there first.
Great, I love spicy food. What time shall we go?
Would seven o'clock be to early?
That's perfect. I'll be out of work by that time.
Great. Green curry, a couple of pints and live music: I'm really looking forward to it!
Me too. Oh, will I invite Seán? He might be free too.
Do, surely. It will be nice to get together again. Bye for now!
See you tonight!

What's your favourite festival?
I love Christmas. I really enjoy the atmosphere - the parties, the decorations, the presents, the food, even the weather!
And what will you do for Christmas?
I will be at home with my people. I like to spend time with my family and old friends.
Are you serious? Why?
I suppose Christmas makes me nostalgic, and I prefer making arrangements and plans for the year ahead. What about you, Seán?
I understand both of you but I have to say that Halloween is my favourite festival! I love the costumes and the fireworks.
It's a long time since I was dressed up on Halloween!
Tell me now, Aogán: do you make New Year's resolutions?
I do, surely. The trick is to choose resolutions that are worthwhile and achievable.
That makes sense, I suppose. What resolutions do you have this year?
My resolutions are to avoid meat and to improve my French.
I slipped up and ate chicken once but apart from that, I'm getting on well. Do you have any resolutions?
Yes. I would like to go running three times a week as I intend to do a half-marathon in a couple of months.
I'm envious of you, lads. Maybe I should make resolutions next year.
Why not start now?
Okay then. This year I will lose ten kilograms and read ten books!
What are your resolutions regarding learning Irish?
Good for you. How are you getting on?
