Caro: I missed your call last night. Everything ok?
Helen: Just something I wanted to run by you.
Caro: Want to talk now?
Helen: Can’t. No time. But also, I was thinking, let’s do something for Kay? Yesterday was the big day.
Caro: I know.
Helen: I wonder what she did.
Caro: I expect she spent it in her pyjamas watching Real Housewives. She said she wanted a quiet night.
Helen: Sounds wonderful. I still think we should do something. And you! You need to have a hen night!
Caro: What are you thinking?
Helen: Not sure yet. Dinner at my new place? You haven’t seen it yet.
Caro: I have.
Helen: Not properly. Not with everything in it.
Caro:
Helen: We can make it a joint retirement/hen party.
Caro: Sounds great, although I think we’ll have a problem getting themed party ware!
Helen: You’ll be able to get down so soon again?
Caro: Overnight, yes. No problem.
