The Kintyre Forum

The boss wondered why one of his most valued employees was absent but had not phoned in sick one day. Needing to have an urgent problem with one of the main computers resolved, he dialled the employee's home phone number and was greeted with a young child's whisper.....

Hello?

- Hello there, is your daddy home? he asked.

Yes whispered the small voice.

May I talk with him?

No the child whispered

Surprised and wanting to talk with an adult, the boss asked

- Is your Mummy there?

Yes

- May I talk with her?

Again the small voice whispered, No

Hoping there was somebody with whom he could leave a message, the boss asked,

- Is anybody else there?

Yes......... a Policeman whispered the child

Starting to become concernd and wondering what the Polce would be doing at his employee's home, the boss asked,

- May I speak with the policeman?

No, he's busy whispered the child.

- Busy doing what?

Talking to Daddy and Mummy and the Fireman came the whispered answer.

Growing more worried as he heard a loud noise in the background through the earpiece on the phone, the boss asked,

- What is that noise?

A helicopter answered the whispering voice.

- Goodness, what is going on there? demanded the boss, now truly apprehensive...

Again, whispering, the child answered

The search team just landed a helicopter

Alarmed, concerned and a little frustrated the boss asked,

- What are they searching for?

Still whispering, the young voice replied with a muffled giggle...
