Friday 7th We have had a day off school today because of an inset day.
Emma told me that she and Zoe had phoned Dougie this morning. I think she was being truthful. This is how (more or less) she said the conversation went:
Zoe: Hi, is that James? It’s Zoe.
Dougie: Hi.
Zoe: Here’s Emma.
Emma: Hi. We’re bored.
Dougie: Oh.
Emma: We’re near school.
Dougie: That’s nice.
Emma: Er… inspiration?
Dougie: Can’t you think of anything to say?
Zoe: She wants to ask you something.
Dougie: What?
Emma: She wants me to ask you out but I’m not coz I don’t want to go out with you.
Dougie: Right.
Zoe and Emma: Bye!
Dougie: Bye!
[A typically riveting conversation then.]
I’m quite glad I wasn’t there coz there’s a chance he’ll think they’re stupid now. Although I would’ve liked to hear it, if it’s true that is!
Bye!
