1Why did Elizabeth tell Nigel that
2she was going to the dentist?
3I crossed the street to avoid meeting him but he saw me and came running towards me.
4It was no use pretending that I had not seen him,
5 so I waved to him.
6I never enjoy meeting Nigel Dykes.
7He never has anything to do.
8No matter how busy you are,
9 he always insists on coming with you.
10I had to think of a way of preventing him from following me around all morning.
11'Hello, Nigel,' I said 'Fancy meeting you here!'
12'Hi, Elizabeth,' Nigel answered.
13'I was just wondering how to spend the morning--until I saw you.
14You're not busy doing anything, are you?'
15'No, not at all,' I answered.
16 'I'm going to...'
17'Would you mind my coming with you?'
18he asked, before I had finished speaking.
19'Not at all,' I lied,
20 'but I'm going to the dentist.'
21'Then I'll come with you,' he answered.
22'There's always plenty to read in the waiting room!'
