CONVERSATION
TEACHER: OK everyone, this is your biggest challenge yet.
PETE: A day when we mustn't argue?
TEACHER: No, no. The challenge will take longer than a day. A day and a night in fact. You're going to go camping.
DEBBIE: Camping!
PETE: Wicked! Are you coming too, Miss?
TEACHER: No. You have to plan the trip yourselves, and go on it yourselves, too. You're going to be on your own.
JASS: Right, I've written out everything we need for the camping trip. I've listed the things you need for yourself and then some stuff for you to bring for all of us.
DEBBIE: Baked beans? I hate those.
PETE: Never mind, Debbie, I love them. You're bringing them for me!
JOEL: There's loads of stuff here. Do we really need it all, Jess? I've got hardly any money at the moment.
PETE: OK, then, you can sell your guitar!
PETE: No, seriously, you can borrow some money from me. But I want it back, though.
JASS: It's really important to be prepared. We don't want anything to go wrong.
JASS: Joel, Joel, hi! Have you got everything on your list yet?
JOEL: Not yet. Give me a chance!
JASS: How are you getting on with the camping list, Debbie?
DEBBIE: Um, OK. What about you?
JASS: Oh, I've finished mine. All done!
JASS: Pete! Have you got everything on your list?
PETE: List? What list?
JASS: Pete!
PETE: No, only joking. Don't worry. I'm going to get everything together tonight.
TEACHER: I'm going to take you all to the campsite and then leave you. You'll be on your own, OK?
JASS: Let's just check we've got everything before we go.
JOEL: No. Not again, Jess.
DEBBIE: Eurgh, my feet are all wet.
PETE: Put your boots on.
DEBBIE: I didn't bring any.
JASS: They were on your list.
DEBBIE: I forgot them, OK.
JASS: I said let's check everything, but no one wanted to.
DEBBIE: Oh be quiet, Jess. Ouch!
JASS Oi!
DEBBIE: Help me get this back up.
JASS: Can you guys light the fire?
JOEL: No problem.
PETE Have you got the matches?
JOEL: Jess, have you got the matches?
JASS: No but they were on someone's list.
DEBBIE: I didn't bring any.
PETE: I didn't either.
JOEL: Nor me.
JASS: I don't believe it!
JOEL: Oh come on, Jess. Calm down.
PETE: I know things are going wrong, but we can still have fun.
JOEL: Yeah, let's ask the farmer for some matches.
PETE: I'm on my way!
DEBBIE: It's a good thing the farmer had some matches.
JOEL: And some milk!
PETE: And a tin opener!
JOEL: We're really bad campers, aren't we?
JASS: No, you're not.
JOEL: That's right, we're not. We're still here, aren't we?
