Tour guide: Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to this fantastic tour of London by bus. As you can see, we’re on an open-top bus, so you can see all the attractions from your seat and you don’t need to walk anywhere.

Tourist: I have a question.

Tour guide: Yes?

Tourist: Do you have extra umbrellas? I mean, if it rains a lot.

Tour guide: Err, no, we don’t have any extra umbrellas, but don’t worry, I’m sure it won’t rain. Right, OK, so where are we going on our wonderful tour? Well, the tour takes two hours and we are going to visit all the famous sites. First we’ll see Madame Tussauds*, the museum with wax models of famous people and celebrities, then we’ll drive along the most famous shopping street in the world, Oxford Street. After that we’ll see Westminster Abbey* and The Houses of Parliament. As we drive along the river you’ll see the popular attraction, the London Eye, from which you can see the whole city on a sunny day. Then we’ll see Tower Bridge and the famous Tower of London before arriving at Buckingham Palace*, just in time for a cup of tea with the Queen.

Tourist: I have another question.

Tour guide: Yes?

Tourist: Can we have our money back? It’s going to rain heavily.
