Rowan: This is a completely pointless exercise.
Sadie: No it isn’t! I just want to see if they’ll work. If I can alter them…
Effie: I think mine would be OK with a few tweaks…
Rowan: Well mine ISN’T going to fit ME, is it? Not by the time the wedding comes round. The chest’s tight already!
Sadie: I thought there might have been a bit more in the seams…well, it depends on how big you’re going to get doesn’t it?
Rowan: Well, I’m sorry, Sadie, but I don’t KNOW, do I?
Sadie: You know, you’ll probably have a HUGE baby; Jake’s so tall and broad.
Effie: Sadie…
Sadie: And for all we know, you could be having twins! It’s supposed to run in families, isn’t it?
Rowan: Oh don’t…
Sadie: But that would be so lovely, if you and Effie both had twins!
Effie: Actually, Sadie, I think that comes from MY side of the family, not Will’s and Rowan’s. Let’s change the subject, yes?
Sadie: Oh I’m sorry, darling. I didn’t mean to upset you.
Rowan: Sadie, I’m sorry, but today, I really don’t feel up to standing around while you stick pins in me.
Rowan: And I know how much you want us to wear these dresses, but whatever you do to mine, it’s going to look stupid, isn’t it? I’m going to look like a big shiny green blob and I don’t want to, I’ll feel ridiculous and I’ll just spoil your photos.
Sadie: Oh darling, don’t be silly! Of course you won’t. Look, it probably was a silly idea about the dresses anyway – I just thought, you know, it would have been fun, seeing as we wore them for Effie’s wedding. But it would be nicer to have something totally new, after all, and we can pick a style that will be flattering, can’t we?
Sadie: I think the green wouldn’t look as good with my colour scheme anyway as it did with Effie’s. How about if we get something floaty in pink chiffon..?
Rowan: Oh god it just gets worse and worse…
