Oh, random. Surely you can sneak in and out?

If not, then think of all the things you'll get done while you're not sitting on here all day

Good luck ... see you in September!

I wouldn't mind if they were actually talking about something!
It's just crapola all the time isn't it?

Still it doesn't cost anything and I used to spend hours on phone to my mate when I was a teen when I'd been with her at school all day - used to wind my parents up equally with that!
