I got the call at half past two
just who it was I've not a clue,
the voice seemed strange and quite unreal
a very disconcerting feel.
Maybe she'd got the number wrong
they didn't hang around that long,
a jumbled mass of words came out
that culminated in a shout.
I could not place the voice at all
it ripped the phone right off the wall,
expletives whizzing through my ears
awakening within great fears.
I did not understand a word
of what was said, seemed quite absurd,
my name was not a 'Gladys Nidd'
who owed some person fifty quid.
With more expletives ringing clear
I'd had as much as I could hear,
so with applomb and hearty wack
returned the said reciever back.
I must confess before all that
I shouted out-'You stupid bat!'

lol strange wrong numbers you get! I've had a few odd ones but I've never had expletives shouted down the line. Maybe its the new trend in computerized ones from America. I'm sure you must have had them as they seem to be more common these days. A good write

Said with feeling
I'm sorry I withdrew the contest, this would have done well, but I have another...
Love
