TRANSCRIPTS

Part 1.

Girl: Good morning, what can I do for you?

Peter: Uh, yes, I am currently visiting this area, but I injured myself when I was doing sports a while ago, and I still feel painful, so I wondered whether I could go for a doctor here.

Girl: Sure sir, we can take you on as a temporary patient. I’ll just take down some personal details of you. May I have your name, please?

Peter: Yes, it’s Peter Smith.

Girl: All right, Peter. And where are you currently staying here?

Peter: At 95 Cross Street.

Girl: And the county?

Peter: Walkley. That’s W-a-l-k-l-e-y.

Girl: OK, and can I have a contact number?

Peter: Uh, it’s 4689 5324.

Girl: OK, thanks. May you just wait down there! The doctor will see you in a minute.

Doctor: Now, how can I help you? It’s Peter Smith, isn’t it?

Peter: Yes, I had a sporting accident, and a doctor at home treated me, but I’m still getting some pain.

Peter: Hum, right. Uh, first of all, I want to ask you a few questions.

Peter: Okay.

Doctor: Well, what sport were you doing when you got injured?

Peter: Playing tennis with my friends.

Doctor: Now, I see. Did you hurt your elbow or wrist?

Peter: Oh, no. I had my knee sprained, which was the original problem.

Doctor: Right, and when did this happen?

Peter: Uh, that was three weeks ago now, so it was about June 18th.

Doctor: Hum. And, you said you had medical treatment at home?

Peter: Uh, yeah. The doctor said I didn’t need an X-ray or things alike, and he just told me to use an ice pack.

Doctor: Fine, anything else?

Peter: Yes, and I’ve been using a walking stick to help me get around.

Doctor: Right, now what problems are you having during walking?

Peter: Well, actually I can walk, yet I still can’t go upstairs, so I’ve been sleeping downstairs.

Doctor: Hum, now you said your knee still gets hurt?

Peter: Well, no. Actually, it’s getting better. It’s my back that’s hurting, me now. It really aches at night, and I cannot sleep well.

Doctor: Hum, I have several suggestions for that.

Peter: Great.

Doctor: First you should put the stick away as that’s probably the source of the problem.

Peter: Oh, really? I wish I’d know.

Doctor: After that, I can prescribe you something to relax the muscles in your back.

Peter: Oh, sorry to be difficult, but I’ve had something like that in the past, and there were many side effects, and I don’t want to take it. Would you recommend anything else?

Doctor: Well, yes. We do have a leaflet showing some exercises you can do yourself at home. If you do them every day, they’ll soon be effective.

Peter: Great. I’ll do that.

Part 2.

Bill: Yes ... I think it’s a great idea for us to take up a new sport together! My brother’s just joined a weightlifting class ... what about that?

Gemma: Weightlifting?

Bill: Yes ... it could be really good. I’d like to develop my muscles. What do you think?

Gemma: Are you joking? Girls don’t do weightlifting!

Bill: Oh yes they do. My brother said that there were some girls in his class ... not many, mind ...

Gemma: But it could be very dangerous, and bad for your heart. Not to mention the rest of you ...

Bill: Mmmm ... it needn’t be dangerous, if you’re careful. And of course girls don’t lift very heavy weights ...

Gemma: I think these weightlifting champions look horrible, with their huge muscles ... ugh!

Bill: [laughing] Oh I don’t think I’ll go that far...

Gemma: Oh Bill! I really don’t like being confined indoors. I prefer to be outside, moving around. What about something like diving? I mean, we live near the sea. There’s a diving club beside the harbour... Just think about it ... gliding past all those brightly coloured fish and sea plants ...

Bill: But this isn’t exactly the Caribbean! And you need expensive equipment, like a wet suit, an oxygen tank 

Gemma: But you don’t have to buy it ... you can rent it ...

Bill: Anyway ... I don’t like the water. I don’t swim very well...

Gemma: Oh, of course. I’d forgotten that. Well, another sport I was thinking about is hang-gliding. A friend of mine started it a few weeks ago, and she just loves it ...

Bill: Hang-gliding?

Gemma: Obviously it can be dangerous too. I mean, you have to jump off the tops of mountains, and you have to know all about the winds and air currents, and you need a lot of courage ...

Bill: But it sounds really exciting!

Gemma: My friend says she feels like a bird ... it’s so graceful. Though you’re never quite sure where you’re going to land

Bill: Sounds great! Do you want to give it a go?

Gemma: Why not? Let’s ask ... [fade]

Part 3.

There’s a lot going on in our region over the next week. Here’s the pick of some of the very best sporting events happening near you.

First off, it’s the Coastal Bike Challenge on Saturday. Come along on the day and cheer the cyclists on. There are events at 50km and 100km. And there are plenty of local teams cycling this year. If you’re interested in being part of it next year, you can visit the website www.coastbike.co.uk. You’ll need to get your application in early as this event gets booked up way in advance.

The Southern Athletics Championship is on over the whole weekend and being held at the Merefsky Stadium. You’ve probably followed the building of this stadium on TV news and now you’ve got the chance to attend the very first event to be held there. You can expect to see some of the best athletes from our region, including Johnny Wise competing in the 100m.

On to Sunday and the final of the diving competition. This gets more and more popular each year and there are a lot of new faces amongst the divers, not least 17-year-old Kirsty Leyland, who’s a student at our own City College. She’s hoping to break her personal best score this weekend and maybe one day we’ll see her compete in the Olympics.

If you’re a fan of tennis, then go along to the Greenside Tennis Center. They’re tennis tournaments popular and this year you’ll guarantee to see some wonderful matches in the Summer Sunshine. A couple of lucky listeners won’t even have to pay for tickets. Just keep listening and text in your answer to a question I’ll ask at the very end of this report.

I know that lots of you plan to go down to the beach to see the surfers compete over the weekend. Because of that, I think it would probably be a good idea to jump on the bus and leave your car behind. Don’t forget to take your sun hats and sun cream though, the weather’s going to be hot. I’m going to be down there with my picnic, so maybe I’ll see you there.

And on Sunday afternoon, I might see you at Sutton Park. That’s right next to Sutton Sports Center, if you don’t know, and there’s going to be a massive outdoor yoga session taking place. Just come along and try it. It doesn’t matter whether you’re 5 or 95. You’re all invited to join in.

Now back to that question I mentioned earlier.
