This has been making me laugh and laugh and cry and laugh. It reminds me of messages Mum used to leave on my answering machine when I lived on Comm Ave:
"Hello? [pause]
Is this the insane asylum? [pause]
I'm looking for one of your, um... inmates. [giggle]
Ahem. Pamela? It's your mother. [pause]
At the other asylum. Would you give us a call when you're back from... whatever it is that you're doing? Thank you. Oh! We tried some of those Boca burgers? They were quite nice. [pause]
Alright. Bye. [pause]
Bye. [pause]
This is Mum. [click]
