[00:49.42]Well,have you got access to the Internet?
[00:54.10]Yeah,well.we’re connected at work.Right.Well.why don’t you try that?

[01:07.21]To be honest.I’ve never really had much luck buying things on the Internet.
[01:14.29]The other day,I tried to book some train tickets on Ticketline.com.but it was just so complicated 2.
[01:23.15]It took so long!In the end.I just gave up and did it over the phone.
