Bloody hell...new record today - 1 hr 40 mins (8:59 - 10:39).

Started my call at the office
Still ringing when I finished my planned work for the day
Kept ringing when a friend asked me to check how much he owedme from February
Got a bit hungry and fed up and left work - successfully forwarded my office call to my mobile and put my office on call forwarding
Put on my Bluetooth headset, still ringing (Robbie Williams still singing)
Got to the door of the restaurant when my Bluetooth gave out - it's a new one and I haven't quite gotten the hang of when I should be charging it. It's okay, changed to my iPod's headset - my phone has a 3.5mm jack
Had both earpieces on when I started queuing for the sushi place. Kept both pieces on when I was asked if I would won't mind sitting at an order table instead of a revolving belt table (no thanks I'll wait). Earpieces still on when I was finally seated at the revolving belt table.
Was digging into my third plate of sushi when someone finally picked up. Immediately tore the headphone from the jack and reached under the table for the booking file in my work bag. Thank goodness the seat next to me wasn't taken so I commandeered the space. Fortunately the line didn't drop and I was finally done!
