Rob’s post reminded me of an odd call I had last night.

8:48 PM, the phone rings.

“Hello” I say.

“Is this Mr Bartlett?” Oh great, telemarketing. I’m bored with packing so don’t hang up straight away and say “Yeeeeeees”.

“I’m sorry to interrupt you at this hour…”

“No you’re not, otherwise you wouldn’t have called.” say I.

“Oh, I’m sorry.” and she hangs up.
