documents: #Person1#: Hey, Bill. I hear they're going to send you to Germany for the new project.
  #Person2#: Boy, news travels fast around here! I only got the orders a couple of hours ago. Rachel doesn't even know...
  #Person1#: Oh, no? So, what are you waiting for? When do you plan to tell her?
  #Person2#: Well, she is at work at the moment. She doesn't finish until 5. I'll have to wait until tonight now, I suppose.
  #Person1#: Well, I was posted there before, back in 2008. It's OK - a bit like England, really. At least the weather is similar, and the people aren't much different. The only thing I didn't like is the food, especially the sausages. What do you intend to do about the family? Are you going to take them with you?
  #Person2#: Well, I'd like to, but I don't know much about the situation at the moment...you know, about schools and all that. But I hope to move the family out there in a couple of months' time. I don't think I want to spend a year and a half out there on my own...I mean, without Rachel and the kids. I mean, I don't see that much of them now as it is.
  #Person1#: Yeah. Well, that's the way it is normally in our company, I suppose.
  #Person2#: Yeah. Well, we'll see. Let me pay for the coffee.
  #Person1#: No, no. I'll pay.
