Bus XVIII

Jack: The Model UN’s on Friday, right?

Louisa: Thursday. They’ve moved it forward cos of Mr Hilbert’s haemorrhoids.

Jack: Oh really? That’s annoying. Less time to prepare.

Louisa: Gives us an excuse if it all goes wrong though

Jack: I suppose. You got a country now?

Louisa: China

Jack: Wow, that’s an interesting one! Much better than Bolivia. What’s your game plan?

Louisa: Long debates on shoemaking

Jack: Shoemaking?

Louisa: Well, I read this book on Chinese shoemaking once. So I know loads about it. And I figure it’s better to concentrate on one topic in depth than try to cover everything.

Jack: All the same...shoemaking? Why would the UN talk about shoemaking?

Louisa: I dunno, maybe I’m exporting them

Jack: Well, what if somebody wants to raise another issue with you?

Louisa: I’ll keep saying that I’m not willing to discuss anything else until after the shoemaking. By the time I finish everyone’ll just want to go home.
