Louisa: Did you hear Vicky’s saving up to buy Dave a car this year? And he’s put a deposit down on a flat for her.
Jack: Who’s Vicky?
Louisa: Vicky Phelps! Ronnie’s sister.
Jack: And who’s Dave?
Louisa: Don’t you know anything? They’re a couple. Well, they were. One year he gave her a toothbrush for her birthday so she said he was tight with money.
Jack: Why does everyone say that like it’s a bad thing?
Louisa: Anyway, then he bought her a really nice necklace out of spite, and said: ‘If you really loved me, you’d buy me something better than this’. So she bought him a games console, then he bought her a bike, and it carried on like that. They finally broke up a few months ago.
Jack: So why are they still buying the presents?
Louisa: Cos now they want each other back
