When I had a similar role I created a fake employee account who was responsible for talking to all hiring agencies. They had a dummy phone extension with voicemail box as well as email. We’d go in and empty out the messages when they got full.

But…
You can walk around the carriage.
So the language reflects the style of carriage that trains used to have where each train carriage had separate compartments. Sometimes there was a corridor but in my youth they were pretty much all individual.

Thank you. Every day is a school day for me!

That’s an interesting topic, what are the circumstances in which one says something is on versus in? I can say I am on a train for example, but I can also say that I am in a car as being on a car suggests being on the roof rack. I wonder if status relates to being a passenger or not?

That should say “…left unattended on this vehicle overnight” shouldn’t it?

“You say it’s brave to come to the Louvre wearing the tiara, necklace, and earrings of Empress Marie Louise just weeks after stealing them. I say it’s dreadfully vulgar.”

I now want a spider in a box even though I don’t tolerate chocolate (or spiders) very well. That all looks wonderful.

Of course, what else do you think I could have been implying? 😇

I’d be wary of some random person asking me to tell them about my travels. I’m probably weary too and just want a quiet drink.

Keep fingers away from the sharp thing you’re carving with. I learned this last time I carved a pumpkin which was about 25 years ago. I suspect carving with crossed fingers is a bad idea too.
