| Hello? |
| Hello? Who is this? |
| Hello. I'm a representative of the Tallyho Survey Company, |
| and I'd like to ask you a few questions regarding exercise. |
| Ah, that's an interesting subject. |
| Yes, we think so, too. |
| But I'm afraid I'm a bit busy at the moment. |
| Don't worry. This will only take about four minutes at the most. |
| It's 10:25 now, so it will all be over by 10:30. |
| Well... alright, if it's that short. |
| It will be. |
| So, one of the first things I need to know is where you are, |
| that is, which suburb or area of the city? |
| The last client was in Blackburn, for example. |
| Blackburn. That's close to me. I'm in Box Hill. |
| Another eastern suburb then. |
| I have a friend in Box Hill, too. Interesting place. |
| Now, I need your approximate age for this survey. |
| Are you younger than 20, between 20 and 29, 30 and 39, and so on? |
| I'll turn 40 in a few months, |
| so that puts me in the 40 to 49 age group. |
| Well, that's in a few months, so right now you're in the 30 to 39. |
| Oh, right. So put that then. |
| Okay. Now, I need to know your occupation. |
| The last caller was a housewife, for example; the one before that a teacher. |
| I used to be a teacher, too, teaching cookery. |
| And now? |
| Now you can just put 'domestic duties'. |
| Actually, I hope to begin a new job soon, as a cook, |
| but that won't be for some time yet. |
| I have to wait for my husband's restaurant to open. |
| Cook? That sounds interesting, |
| but it's 'domestic duties' for now. |
| Okay, that just leaves some information about your family. |
| This is not obligatory at all, so if you don't want to answer, that's fine. |
| What sort of information, exactly? |
| Oh, it's very broad. |
| Married, with children; single mother, that sort of thing. |
| The last customer said she was a single mother. |
| I'm married, and not a mother. Put 'married, no children'. |
| I'm married with children, myself. |
| But I'll put in your details, and that finishes the profile, |
| and just leaves the actual survey itself, if you're ready to proceed. |
| Alright, let's begin the survey now, about your exercise habits. |
| I'm afraid I don't exercise much at all. |
| Well, the main question is in what form you take your exercise, however little that may be, |
| for example, in just cleaning. Do you clean the house? |
| My husband does the cleaning, actually, |
| but I walk to the supermarket and shops very often, up to four times a week. |
| I'll put that then, unless there's something else. |
| Nothing else, really. But I diet. I'm very strict about what I eat. |
| Oh, and I do yoga, although that's not very energetic, |
| more a form of relaxation, and to tighten my muscles. |
| They're both important, of course, |
| but what about sport? |
| Do you undertake any sporting activities? |
| This could be very infrequent. In the past, for example. |
| My husband plays basketball at the local school, and I sometimes watch. |
| When he was younger he was in a basketball team, but I never participated. |
| Have you done anything at all? |
| I used to hike in a nearby national park. |
| Well that's a definite physical activity, so I'll put that - but not basketball. |
| Alright, that just leaves future exercise intentions. |
| Do you plan, or expect to do, at some stage, any form of exercise? |
| I once dreamt of doing modern dance, but that's never going to happen. |
| Realistically, I'm thinking about going swimming, at the local aquatic centre, |
| although my husband thinks we should just jog. |
| I can't see myself doing that, though, too tiring. |
| I can understand. |
| I used to jog, too, and it really makes you sweat. |
| I'd say swimming's a much better option. |
| But I'll be starting this job as a cook in my husband's restaurant. |
| I imagine I'll be very tired doing all those late shifts. |
| But if I have any energy left over, I might go to the aquatic centre to release some stress. |
| Alright. Well, that's the end of the survey. |
| Thank you very much for your time. |
