		<description>Darragh - I&#039;ve always suspected that they have a fairly hefty bundle of stock responses, rather like the literary equivalent of a soundboard, but even still, the difference in tone and patience between the operator this time and the first time I spoke to him (their name comes up so I know it&#039;s him) is remarkable. I&#039;ll email the copies to you.</description>
