Transcript (read it after you answer)
Friend 1: Yo, Tara, I saw this pottery workshop at Clay Haven. You in?
Friend 2: Ooh, spinning clay sounds fun, Raj. What’s the deal?
Friend 1: It’s a two-hour session this Saturday at 3 p.m. You make a bowl or mug.
Friend 2: Cool. I’ve never tried pottery. Is it beginner-friendly?
Friend 1: Totally. The instructor guides you step-by-step. They even fire your piece in a kiln afterward.
Friend 2: Nice! How much is it? I’m on a budget.
Friend 1: It’s $40, including materials. You just need to wear old clothes—clay gets messy.
Friend 2: I can swing that. Do we need to book in advance?
Friend 1: Yeah, spots fill up fast. I can reserve us both online if you’re free.
Friend 2: I’m good for Saturday. What happens to our creations after?
Friend 1: They glaze and fire them. We pick them up in two weeks.
Friend 2: That’s so exciting. Should we grab coffee after the workshop?
Friend 1: For sure. There’s a café next door. I’ll book us now—want a morning slot instead?
Friend 2: Nah, 3 p.m.’s perfect. Thanks for the idea, Raj!
Friend 1: No prob, Tara. Get ready to get your hands dirty!
