| Are we all set for Ms. Johnson's retirement dinner on Saturday? |
| After all her years at Greenfield Elementary, we want it to be special for her. |
| There's been a minor hiccup. |
| I just heard from the Bloomfield Hotel where we planned to host it; |
| they've unexpectedly closed the dining hall for renovations this weekend. |
| Oh no, did they mention why they didn't inform us earlier? |
| Apparently, it was a last-minute decision due to a maintenance emergency. |
| They've offered a 30% discount if we reschedule for next weekend instead. |
| That's quite generous. |
| How about you see if next Sunday is open? |
| That way, more people might be able to attend. |
| Will do. I'll give them a call now. |
