When the workers and the removal van leave, Maria talks to Andreas.
 
Maria:
 
How could they forget the crockery? Now we don't have anything to eat with!
 
Andreas:
 
Calm down, honey. Why don't we ask our neighbours to lend us some plates, knives, forks, spoons and cups?
 
Maria:
 
Good thinking! It will give us an opportunity to introduce ourselves!
 
Andreas:
 
You know what, let's have a house-warming party this Saturday! We can invite all our neighbours.
 
Maria:
 
That's a great idea!
 
 
 
They walk to the neighbour's house and ring the bell. A woman opens the door.
 
Maria:
 
Hi! We're the Fernandez family. We're from next-door! My name is Maria.
 
Betty:
 
Oh hi! Nice to meet you! I'm Betty.
 
Andreas:
 
Nice to meet you too, Betty. I'm Andreas.
 
Maria:
 
Betty, do you have some spare crockery?
 
Betty:
 
Sure, I do. Do you need some?
 
Maria:
 
Yes, please! The removal company forgot ours!
 
Betty:
 
Sure, no problem! Just a second.
 
 
 
She goes inside and comes back with a box full of crockery.
 
Maria:
 
That's so nice, thank you! Betty, would you like to come to our house-warming party this Saturday?
 
Betty:
 
Sure, what time?
 
Maria:
 
Around three in the afternoon.
 
Betty:
 
Can I bring something? A salad maybe?
 
Maria:
 
Yes, please! That's so nice, thank you!
