Speaker2: please do, you can let me know earlier and i will tell you if no one else is visiting at this time
Speaker1: of course i will :) do you think we can bring him a pie or something? Karen can make some

Speaker1: ah you are probably right...
Speaker2: but you can bring him some good herbal tea :) you know he loves it
