Description

FROM THE BOOK: I flag back the operator. "That number I wanted was Trafalgar 9080." "Very good. That will be a shilling and threepence." I put the shilling in the shilling slot and then look around for the threepence slot. There's a sixpence slot and a penny slot, but no threepence slot. I try to edge the threepence down one of the other slots, but it's too fat and oddly shaped. "What slot do you use for a threepence?" I ask. "I can't hear you," says the operator. I said, "WHERE DO YOU PUT THE THREEPENCE IN?" "Your voice is very faint," says the operator. "Push Button A." "I can't. It won't push." "Then push Button B." I do so and my shilling is returned. "Can you hear me now?" I ask. "Jolly good. Now put the shilling and the threepence in the box." I'm beginning to feel hysterical. "I can't put the threepence in. It won't fit." "You're supposed to put three pennies in-not a threepence." "You said a threepence." "I meant three pennies. Your line is suddenly getting dim. Can you get to another box?"
