Male student:Do you know anything about parking rights on the campus?I was wondering whether students are allowed to park their cars on campus or not.
Female student:Um. Yes.I think it's possible for postgraduate students, but not for undergraduate students.
Male student:That doesn't seem very fair.
Female student:No, I suppose not, but there simply isn't enough room on the campus for everyone to park.
Male student:Hmm. Do you need a parking permit?
Female student:Yeah, I believe you do.
Male student:Where do I get that from?
Female student:Um. I think you can get a parking sticker from the administration office.
Male student:Where's that?
Female student:It's in the building called Block G, right next to Block E.
Male student:Block G?
Female student:Yeah.
Male student:Oh right.And what happens to you if you don't buy a sticker?Do they clamp your wheels or give you a fine?
Female student:No, I think they tow your car away.
Male student:Oh, really?
Female student:Yeah, yeah, yeah.And then they fine you as well, because you have to pay to get the car back.
Male student:I'd better get the sticker then.
Female student:Yeah.
Male student:Where exactly is the administration office again?I'm new to this university, and I'm still trying to find my way around.
Female student:Right.You go along Library Road, past the tennis courts on your left, and the swimming pool on your right, yeah, and the administration office is opposite the car park on the left, you can't miss it.
