What would you do ...

You are just sitting down to enjoy a meal - and the telephone rings - would you :-

1) Ignore it and let it go to voicemail.

2) Answer it - but ask the caller if you can call them back

3) Answer it - and eat while talking (shudders)

4) Answer it - and let the meal go to waste

Re: What would you do ...

Ignore it, cold callers have a way of telephoning at meal times presumably anticipating someone will be at home.

I take great care preparing my meals, if someone wants to contact me urgently they can leave a message and I will get back to them that way a good meal isn't spoilt.
