Well these can be a right laugh if it's done properly. E.G I occationaly phone up the local pub and ask if "Wayne Kerr" or "Mike Hunt" is there, these always get a laugh. The secret to doing them is how you say the name, I mean if you said "Is Mike Hunt there?" they'll hang up. Try saying it like this: Pub worker: "Hello, House 'O' Hill how may I help you?" Me: "Hello, I think my mate Mikes drinking there, could you check for me please." Pub worker: "Can I have a surname?" Me: "A what?" Pub worker: "A surname." Me: "OH Hunt" Pub worker: "Mike Hunt." Me: "Aye that's him." Pub worker: "I'll just check." Me: "Thanks." (In the background, "MIKE HUNT, MIKE HUNT") She comes back. Pub worker: "I'm sorry he's not here." Me: "Oh thanks anyway." (Hang up) I did this when BitcH was in the pub, the next day she told me that the pub worker got the piss taken out of her all night. Have Phun.
