I hope you had a good journey and are not too tired this morning. My name is Jim and I am here to help you. I want to tell you a few things which you might find useful. Firstly, the banks. They’re open from nine thirty in the morning until four o’clock in the afternoon. That’s nine thirty until four. They’re open every day except Sunday. But on Sunday you can change money in the hotel. Next, the buses. You can take a bus from the hotel to the city centre. It’s the number twenty-one. There are buses every fifteen minutes so you won’t have to wait long. You’ll find the bus stop just outside the hotel. A ticket to the city centre costs sixty pence. Finally, tonight we’re having a party for you in the Restaurant. I hope I’ll see you all there. Thank you.
