My DH's old boss used to ring a SUnday afternoons - just to be

updated on what had happened the week before - it used to take about

1 hour every Sunday. I used to stand in the back ground

shouting " Teas Ready " to encourage DH to hang up. I then moved on

to answering the phone saying " he's just bathing/feeding/changing the

boys or I am not sure he is in " We then moved on to monitoring all

phone calls on SUnday afternoons.

He even managed to ring our house when I was in labour with DS2 - mum

explained that I was in labour - his response " How long does it take

to have a baby? " Mum let him know that it took as long as it took!

Fortunately he took early retirement a few months back so we now have

Sunday afternoons back to normal after nearly 7 years of him.

The only other calls we get are the Security Guards ringing if there

is a problem at site. But DH has managed to get his name futher down

the list so it is not such a problem.
