Agreed

A phone call at the workshop on the last Monday of September, Mali on Nam's arm and the varnish drying: we'd like you to talk about the river; me, on the radio; Thursdays at seven, agreed; I'm on leave till October; then start in October; say yes, I'll hold her; fine, no problem; so it's agreed, Thursdays at seven: agreeing, as a word, a question and a summing-up, and the end of this level.
