Hi, all!
In The Gun Seller, by Hugh Laurie, I read this:
(Part 2)
-----Beginning of the citation-----
I arrived back at the flat and went through the usual answerphone
routine. Two meaningless bleeps, one wrong number, one call from a
friend interrupted in the first sentence, followed by three people I
didn't want to hear from who I now had to ring back.
God, I hated that machine.
I sat down at my desk and went through the day's mail. I threw some
bills into the bin, and then remembered that I'd moved the bin into the
kitchen - so I got annoyed, stuffed the rest of the post into a drawer,
and gave up on the idea that doing chores would help me to get things
straight in my mind.
----- The end of the citation -----
Did he mean that he threw his mail on the floor?
Bye, all!
