LEON: So what do you need to get at the fish market? The salmon is always very good and the shellfish.

SHANNON: I’m going to make a curry, I think, and I need about 12 prawns for that.

LEON: They’ll have plenty of those.

SHANNON: OK.

LEON: Have you ever tried samphire?

SHANNON: No – what’s that?

LEON: It’s a type of seaweed. I just ask for a handful and you fry it in butter. It’s delicious!

SHANNON: Oh, I might try that- how do you spell it?

LEON: It’s S-A-M-P-H-l-R-E.

SHANNON: Great – it’s always good to try something different.

LEON: Yeah.

SHANNON: I’ll see what beans they have in the organic shop and I think I’ll get something for dessert there.

LEON: How about a mango?

SHANNON: I’m not sure- they’re not always ripe. I’d prefer a melon- it’s bigger too.

LEON: Good idea. The owner also sells a lot of spices there that you can put in a curry, and things like coconut.

SHANNON: Oh, that’s very helpful. I’ll have a look.

LEON: No problem.

SHANNON: I know bread doesn’t really go with curry but I always like to have some in case.

LEON: As I said – all the bread is home-made and there’s lots of variety. I like the brown bread myself.

SHANNON: Mm, sounds good.

LEON: They sell other things there too.

SHANNON: Like cakes? I love chocolate cake.

LEON: Well – not that, but they have a whole range of tarts and the best are the strawberry ones.

SHANNON: Perfect – hopefully I won t even have to go to the supermarket!
