So who's hanging about in Tasmania? Not my father. I spoke to him in New Zealand only a couple of hours ago, and he will now be fast asleep. Not my mother, who hates flying. Not my lovely sister, who has to be in the UK this evening to fix my email crisis. And yet, I just got a missed call from the lovely island of Tristan Dacuna. According

It was probably an outsourced call centre anyway. When I was in Johannesburg I got a mortgage sales call on my UK phone, from what was allegedly a UK-based company... I thought the guy's accent sounded suspicious so I asked where he was, turns out he was in Jo'burg too :-)

What a splendid way to waste everyone's time and money.

I don't think there are enough people on Tristan da Cuhna to staff a call centre :) Very small, and a bit volcanic if I remember correctly, having an old school friend who was from there.

But someone should have left a message on Ms K's mobile if there were trying to get hold of her, methinks :)

Yeah, I had a look on the web afterwards, apparently there are about 300 people -- and nearly half of them work for the government...

All 300 people share 7 surnames, too. Happarently.
