After a recent spate of home improvements, four couples were having a dinner party to discuss the additions to their houses.

Laura delighted in showing photographs of her new conservatory. Neither Charles nor David had a new kitchen. Julie had not had new windows. Alan, who also had not had windows, is not married to Laura and Charles is not married to Kara.
