Yesterday my boss told me that our meeting had to be called off, it had to be cancelled, because he had to travel. As there were more people interested in that meeting, I called up them to inform about our called off meeting, I phoned them to inform it was cancelled.

Anyway I couldn’t call up some people, as I had not their phone numbers or they were not available. Only one of them called back to my phone call, only one of them replied to my phone call. When he called back, I was able to ask him to not come today as the event was called off. About the rest of people, they had no idea about the event cancellation, so this morning they were waiting in the reception, may be ten people, and they were all talking out loud, so I had to call out my message about the cancellation from the stairs, I had to announce it in a loud voice. I called out the cancellation for three times, and finally they all understood my message.

I realized one of them was my dear fellow Andrew, now working five hundred kilometers away from this town. We talked for a bit, he told me they were in troubles with the phone systems in their office, and they had already called in a technician to repair them, they had already asked them for help, but they were working full-time on other tasks so they would need more time to repair their phone line. We talked for a while about the troubles you always find when you call in a technician, a veterinarian, a plumber or even the police, when you ask them for help they always seem to be busy. 

After a brief convesation, he told me he had to go, so I asked him to call in next time he visited my town, I asked him to visit me next time he visited my town, he promised to call in both me and my friend George and we said goodbye.
