JULIE: Are you doing the football
pools, Brain?
BRIAN: Yes, I've nearly finished, Julie.
Julie. I'm sure we'll win
something this week.
JULIE: You always say that,
but we never win anything!
What will you do
if you win a lot of money?
BRIAN: If I win a lot of money
I'll buy you a mink coat.
JULIE: I don't want a mink coat!
I want to see the world.
BRIAN: All right.
If we win a lot of money
We'll travel round the world
and we'll stay at the best
hotels. Then we'll return home
and buy a big house in the
country. We'll have a beautiful
garden and …
JULIE: But if we spend all that money
we'll be poor again.
What'll we do then?
BRIAN: If we spend all the money
we'll try and win the football
pools again.
JULIE: It's a pleasant dream
but everything depends on 'if'!
