Game description
A newly qualified solicitor has opened his notary office in the most distinguished part of town. The only thing missing is the clientele looking for advice. After days of gruelling waiting, he notices a man walking up to the office. The solicitor quickly grabs the telephone receiver and starts to speak: „Yes, hello! What did you say? You found our invitation was very convincing? That is probably a little over-exaggerated, but….“ Condescendingly, he signals to his visitor with a wave, that he should some in. „Great. We will appear in court ourselves. Our assistants will deal with that…but of course, they are very competent solicitors. We’ve practically got the case in the bag. Call back tomorrow? No, that’s not good, we have to make an appointment in Frankfurt and then another in London. But do not worry. Your case is in the best possible hands. Please discuss everything else with my secretary.“ The young solicitor hangs up and turns to the visitor: „And what can I do for you?“ – „Nothing really“, replies the man. „I am from the communications service and have come to set up your telephone connection.“
