  Alex: No. Been really busy for the last couple of weeks.
  Nicolas: You know that the deadline is this week.
  Alex: Is that a real deadline or a soft one?
  Nicolas: Real one. 
  Alex: Then I better reschedule some stuff and look at it tonight.
  Nicolas: Good man :-)
  Alex: Always!
  Nicolas: Write the draft reply and drop it to me on the email tomorrow morning so I can give it the once over and edit it if need be.
  Alex: I will. Is it OK if i email it to you by the end of play tomorrow cause I have a family dinner on tonight?
  Nicolas: It doesn't leave much time but it should be fine.
  Alex: Thanks for that. I really appreciate it.
  Nicolas: No probs.
