GORDON
Which day and anything else to say?

SALLY
Sunday

GORDON
No poetry? Story?

SALLY
I’m watching a magpie at the moment… I will give it some attention later! Xx

GORDON
Perfect x

SALLY
I can’t think of anything that isn’t sad… how can a lost unicorn wellie be anything but terrible disappointment… but that was a  fabulous happy festival x

GORDON
I prefer “I’m watching a magpie at the moment… I will give it some attention later!”

SALLY
Stick with that…

GORDON
I might combine them – just to confirm – were looking at the magpie at the time of the picture?

SALLY
No … I was looking at a magpie up the allotment when you wanted words! Are there more rules to this I don’t know about?

GORDON
None at all – it just makes it more interesting if there is a bit more than a picture – no rules at all.
