INT. TRAVEL AGENTS – DAY
A WOMAN enters the travel agent’s and sits down at the desk opposite a male TRAVEL AGENT.
WOMAN
Hello, I was wanting to book a holiday for two.
TRAVEL AGENT
Well that is our stock in trade! How can I help you?
WOMAN
Well we’d like go to Paris by Train, stay in a three or four star hotel for three nights, then have a car rental arranged to drive south to Italy stopping overnight in a quaint old bed and breakfast on the outskirts of Dijon then on to Milan the next day, maybe stay there a couple of nights then another train to Rome, a week there in five star accommodation then a gentle cruise across the Med to Barcelona, three nights there then a plane back to Heathrow leaving at about 5 p.m. Second class. So! How soon can we go?
There is a long pause in which the travel agent looks panicked.
TRAVEL AGENT
Benidorm’s very nice this time of year! My cousin’s just been and she absolutely loved it!
