The Rough With The Smooth

Some joker rang at about five in the morning to ask if Amy were there and then, having been told she wasn't, to ask Ailz if she had big tits. I hate it when the phone rings in the middle of the night, because my first thought is always that someone must have died.

But nevermind- today looks like it's going to be a bright ,shiny day- just as yesterday was- when we drove down into South Manchester to pick up up a pushchair Ailz had sourced from Freecycle- and the new, little, baby leaves on the trees in the suburban parks were almost unrealistically green.

You have just cited yet another reason I have for shutting off the bell on my phone overnight and letting the voice mail take messages. Prank callers and sales solicitors do not leave messages, and if I do not hear the phone ring I do not have to answer it. I have not had an obscene phone call in over ten years, neither have I been waked up in the middle of a sound sleep by a ringing phone.

We don't have voice mail- and we don't like to switch the phone off altogether because we both have elderly parents.

Thankfully we don't get nuisance calls very often.
