1. Hi. This is Mary from Gold Coast Travel Agency. We've confirmed your flights for you. We're e-mailing your itinerary to you, so you should be receiving it any minute. We've also booked you for three nights in the Paradise Inn, right on the beach. The hotel has a shuttle bus that takes you from the airport to the hotel, and it should be waiting for you outside the baggage claim area. It's a complimentary shuttle, so you don't have to pay for the trip, although we recommend you tip the driver. A few dollars for each bag should be fine. All right? Call me at 878-1990 when you get this message.

2. Hey, this is Peter from the mailroom. There's a package here waiting for you, so when you get a chance, could you come down and pick it up? Actually, it's after five o'clock, so I guess we're closed now. I'll leave the package for you at the front desk, with the receptionist. Just pick it up tomorrow from her. Oh, I almost forgot. That letter you were waiting for, the urgent one with the legal documents? I'm sorry to tell you it hasn't arrived yet. If you want to check again tomorrow morning. just give me a call at extension 44.

3. Hi. this is Mike. Hope you're not working too hard down there! Anyway. I was calling to ask you something. Would you like to have lunch with me? I want to take you to lunch at a great Italian restaurant near the harbor. They serve this really amazing vegetarian lasagna, and the service is really great—helpful and polite. Then, after lunch, I was thinking maybe we could take a boat trip on the river. I'm sure you'd enjoy it. Anyway, give me a call on Thursday and let me know if you're free. My number is 754-9367.
