Maybe she figure you will call her back. Did she leave a message? Maybe a wrong number...."Oh great! Got that B & B again!"Morticia said:

I just called a place to find out if they are offering a special Mothers' Day Brunch or just regular menu and I hung up without leaving a message only to have them call me.Duff2014 said:Maybe she figure you will call her back.

(I figured it was a monday so they were closed anyway, but thought perhaps they had shared the info on the voice mail...we are accepting reservations for mothers' day blah blah)
The guy who called said "Oh did you call em? I think I have the restaurant phone fwd to my cell phone..."

Third time? Call after hours, listen to message, call back in the morning?Duff2014 said:Maybe she figure you will call her back. Did she leave a message? Maybe a wrong number...."Oh great! Got that B & B again!"Morticia said:
Got a message this time. Not staying here. Guess there won't be another call tonight.
I don't generally call back if the person doesn't leave a message. I used to but now 90% of the calls are dead air spam.

Every year I post a special about Mother's Day - it was started about 25 miles from me). Have only had people bring Mama for Mother's Day a very few times. Sigh.

The moral of my story was he called me back without leaving a message, and yes they are offering a special brunch at set times by reservation only. They are already 50% sold out. It is mostly word of mouth. Plus I had a nice chat to him, and I thought he was the bee's knees!
