“Then handed Bernard to a colleague; Bernard apologized for the inconvenience.”
The call
Oldest line at the top; it reads downward like a script.
Jae Peckham
Hello, it's Jae Peckham, The Fenwick Ghyll Trust — we handle your windows, and I'm ringing to get your fortnightly sash polish started.
Bernard
Oh, the windows, yes — well, that's very good of you. I was just watching the milk float go past, it's got the most terrible brakes on it, squeals like anything. Now, what was it about the windows again?
Jae Peckham
Squeaky brakes, that's the milk float's problem, not yours, Bernard. Yours is that the sash polish arrives every other week and just happens — you do nothing at all.
Bernard
Every other week, you say. And I'd do nothing at all, well, that does sound restful. Does it come in green at all? Only I'm fond of green.
Jae Peckham
Colour's for later, Bernard. On the money side, the subscription renews quietly on its own, so there's nothing to remember.
Bernard
It renews by itself, does it? Well, I'd have to think about that. My grandson tells me I'm terrible for forgetting things — though I corrected him, it's the boiler that wants seeing to, not the garden gate.
Jae Peckham
You'd have nothing to forget, that's the beauty of it. Say the word and the shine starts fortnightly from this month.
Bernard
Fortnightly from this month, right. And would it mind the bird do you think? He's in the front room and he does startle at the least little thing.
Jae Peckham
Honestly, Bernard, I've been at this twenty minutes and I'm the best on my floor. Someone else can take the bird and the windows — I'll pass it along.
Bernard
Oh, I'm sorry to hear that, I really am — I was very interested, you know. Well, you get yourself off, and mind how you go.
Jae Peckham
I'll get someone else to ring you. Goodbye.
