Home phone answering machine messages

[Contratrombone64]

Finding how to block people that annoy you on this forum is good, it's only taken me a year, and thanks to the help of a moderator (who will remain nameless). It reminded me of a friend who has a funny answer phone message, which goes along the lines of:

Hi, you've phoned ***, I'm not here at the moment, but if you leave your name and number I'll phone you back. There is someone I just have been avoiding, too, so if you don't get a call back, I guess it's you.

made me cringe, and then adopt it on my own home phone

I can't stand answering machines! When I get one when I want to talk
to someone I hang up on it!

Judy - I'm soooooo with you on that!! How is your new home going?? Are you closer to your precious organ for easier practising?

Contra, I would give anything to play that beautiful organ at church. I miss
it badly. It was my prayer room.
