Secretary: Advertising Standards Authority. Good morning.

Assistant: Hello, TV adverts department.
Caller: I'd like to speak to the head of department.
Assistant: Sorry, he's out of the office at the moment. Can I help you?
Caller: I want to make a complaint. I'm the father of two young children. I can't understand why you allow so many adverts for sweets and chocolate to be broadcast at times when kids are watching TV. These adverts tell children that sweets are tasty and fun when in fact they are very bad for their teeth. I think this is disgusting. Something should be done about it.
Assistant: I understand your concern, sir. I have a young daughter too. If you would like to come to our office, you could discuss this problem in more detail with my manager and we can show you the Advertising Code of Practice. Would you be able to come?
Caller: OK. Could I have your manager's name?
Assistant: Yes, of course. His name is Yusuf Juraev. His direct telephone number is 179-06-44
Caller: What's the address of your office?
Assistant: 41 Buyuk Turon Street. And could I have your name please?
Caller: Shuhrat Rasulov. When could we meet?
Assistant: Any time that is convenient for you.
Caller: All right. The 20th of March, at 11 a.m. Is that OK for you?
Assistant: Yes that's fine. I'll pass the message to my manager.
Caller: I look forward to meeting Mr Juraev on the 20th of March.then.
