Tim in a cafe
Episode 118: Tim meets the owner
Tim:Are you Henry, the owner?
Henry:Yes. You must be Tim. Janet's told me all about you.
Tim:Oh good things, I hope.
Henry:Well, the key words were 'honest', 'hard-working' and 'down on his luck'.
Tim:I couldn't have put it better myself.
Henry:Well you can't help having a bit of bad luck now and again; that's life. But honesty and a willingness to graft hard? Now, those are traits you don't find every day.
Tim:Really?
Henry:Yes. You know, this cafe's been very good to me. I've made some great friends, had a lot of laughs and I've even managed to make a bob or two. So, take a deep breath and tell me, do you fancy having a go at being the boss?
