Cordless phones are common in homes these days and very useful. Especially when you have long conversations. I find myself wandering around the house, maybe looking in a mirror, playing a couple of notes on the piano etc. Paying attention to the caller all of the time, of course, you understand.
Tonight my brother, Barry, called. We don't speak much on the phone but tonight's call was 59 minutes. After about 25 minutes I was thinking about turning my bike round. Doing number twos. Having a pony. You get my drift? After about 40 minutes I gave up an "silently" did the deed. Afterwards, with the phone mostly tucked under my chin, I said "Hang on, I'm going to flush the toilet now" to which Barry replied "Have you just had a crap?". I confessed that indeed I had soiled the conversation by so doing. He continued "Only, I had one about 15 minutes ago when we were talking about....".
Oh Brother.
