Clerk: Next, please. Customer: Hello. I'd like to send this parcel to Australia. Clerk: Let me weigh it. <short pause> Two kilos. What's inside? Customer: Books and a small present. Clerk: Would you like standard or express delivery? Customer: How long does standard take? Clerk: About two weeks. Express is five days, but it's more expensive. Customer: It's a birthday present for next week, so express, please. Clerk: That's thirty-five dollars. Here is your tracking number. Customer: Thank you very much.
