when i lived in kennington, my phone number was one digit away from stannah's(which was odd, because there's a Stannah's factory down the road from my parent's house. anyway.)
I got back one saturday night to find a message on my answerphone - which had a personalised message from me, btw - from Lady [name deleted], whose stairlift had broken on friday night (when i'd been out), and could i arrange to have someone come round to fix it? feeling quite sorry for her, as she sounded old, i phoned her back to tell her i wasn't stannah's. when i rang she answered the phone and i said, "you left a message about your stairlift, but-" at which point she said, "oh yes, hang on, i'm in the shower, let me put a dressing gown on". erk. she then came back and told me that her cleaning lady had fixed it shortly after she phoned, "but thank you ever so much for phoning back, that really is excellent customer service" and hung up. to be honest, i moved so i could cahnge my phone number and wouldn't have to speak to her again.
not interesting, but there you go.
