Liz (on the phone): Hi Mum, are you all packed and ready for your visit?

Mother: Yes darling; we're so excited to see you again.

Liz: Me too. But there's been a change of plans.

Mother: Oh, yes?

Liz: I've booked you into a hotel that is opposite my appartment.

Mother: Why? Don't you want us to stay with you?

Liz: It's not that, Mum. It's just that the appartment is tiny. You and Dad would have to squeeze into my bed or the sofa. That's not going to work.

Mother: Oh, I hadn't thought about that. Mmm, well, whatever you think is best is fine with us darling.

Liz: Your room has a King size bed; it's non-smoking, and has internet access.

Mother: Perfect. It sounds lovely dear. We'll see you in a couple of days!
