Primal, that was a difficult one. When I came to this part of the world we has the same digits, different way to a Haulage Company. We got calls at all hours, it was annoying. I soon got the number changed. Not as bad as having a shared line, YES a shared line! It proved a major problem. I did 'an Elly' and had it changed quick, fast!!!!! Oops! Primal, that was a difficult one.

I'd get panic calls in the middle of the night. I figured it was best to answer because they'd just keep hitting redial, annoying me and upsetting themselves that the doctor wasn't answering.
