"Is there a chemist's near here?"she asked the waiter.
"Yes,madam.It's only about three minutes'walk away.Turn right when you go out of the restaurant,then take the second turning on the left.You'll find a big chemist's about a hundred yards up the roads on the right hand side.It closes at five,but if you hurry,you'll just get there in time."
