| Sue: | Hi, Jane! What are you doing? |
| Jane: | Hi, Sue. I’m looking through this album of old family photos my mum just sent me. Some of them really bring back memories. |
| Sue: | That’s interesting! Can I have a look? |
| Jane: | Of course. Let’s see if you can recognize me in this photo! My mum took it when I was about eight, I think. Now, which one is me? |
| Sue: | I think, this is you, in the middle. Is that your gradma behind you? |
| Jane: | You ‘re right and that’s my granddad, standing behind her. My parents are on the left. The girl in front of my mum is my sister, Lisa. The ones on the right are my mum’s twin sister, her husband and my cousin, Billy. He’s so funny. We all lived in the small town. |
| Sue: | Well, you all look happy. Anyway, I’ll look at the rest later. I have a lecture now. |
| Jane: | Okay, see you. |
