Phone calls
So who can beat the time of twenty minutes?
I’m not talking about talking on the phone, as I’m sure many people will have talked for longer than this. I’m not talking about the amount of time waiting to get to speak to a real person, as again I’m sure people have waited for much longer (especially if you were trying to get Glastonbury tickets). I’m talking about the amount of time sitting there, with the phone in your hand and the number dialled in, waiting to press the call button. I sat in Uni Parks for about five minutes before getting my phone out and twenty minutes before I pressed the call button. And then I got the mother on the other end.
So who can beat that? At some point in your life you must have done it.

I possibly did once, which is quite an achievement considering how extremely rarely I make phone calls. I think I took so long the number went away and I had to press the buttons again.

Yeah, that happens after a couple of minutes though on our phone.

Mr E
Who were you phoning?

Notice the carefully worded entry designed not to give out that bit of information…

Mr E
Hence the question.

It was you, Jonathan.
No, really, I thought it should be obvious from the wording that I wasn’t giving out that information :)
