   Alan? Alan, if you’re at home, please answer the phone. Are you really not there? Well, I’d just like to say that I’m really annoyed with you—and your father is too. You know how much he loves our monthly family lunches. This is the fifth one you’ve missed. I hope you’ve got a really good reason this time. Oh, umm, this is your mother speaking.
