Tom it's Colin here.
Er... are you there ?
If so, don't forget lunch today, erm...
12.30 Ian Randall.

Er... give me a call
Or something
So that... it takes place
Bye.

You're not there are you ?
Tom, Colin here...
Tom, it's extremely urgent:
We're meant to be having
Lunch with Ian Randall -
Where are you?

Tom... Tom, this is Colin
Are you there?
Are you there ?
This is EXTREMELY urgent
I'm ringing to remind you
We're meant to be having
Lunch with Ian Randall

If you do get in
While I'm at lunch
Will you PLEASE go to L'Escargot
At the bottom of Greek Street
As fast as possible
The lunch is due
To start at 12.30
I shall be there.
See you later.
Bye.

Hi, I'm ringing
on behalf of Colin Bell

Goodbye.

Tom, it's Colin here
Are you there ?
Are you there, Tom ?
You're not there.
Well, I'm at L'Escargot.
Alright...
Bye.
