I wondered if silly things happen to you. ( well,sillyish, anyway)) Had a phone call this morning, it was someone asking me to look up a telephone number because there was no access to a computer. I looked up the number, and when I started to read it out, he said “ hang on, while I get a pen and paper”
I think that was why Directory enquiries went automated. They must have got sick of people ringing them and then saying "hang on- let me find a pen" :-)
Young lad 20+ begged for my £1 from smkt trolley which I gave him & asked if he wanted work. He came to my home & cleaned my greenhouse glass. When I paid him he returned my £1 ;)
