He said,“Go to the telephone and call a ten-figure number,it must begin with 010.Got that—010?You can please yourself about the other seven figures.”I called the number 010 3612597.A few moments later I heard a man's clear voice at the other end.The voice said,“Kikri 2597.Don Flower speaking.” I said,“Hello,Mr.Flower.I'm Robert West,and this call to you is one of my birthday presents.I'm thirteen today——” “Oh,that's great.Many happy returns of the day!Where are you calling from,Robert?You sound very clear.” “I'm at home in London.Where are you?” “You're in London!Well,well——I've never had a call from London before.I live in Kikri,in Australia.About a hundred miles from Kikri,actually,but it's the nearest place.I've got a small farm here,with about ninety thousand sheep on it.You ought to come and visit me one day.” “I'd like to,very much.Your farm must be very big,Mr.Flower,if you've got ninety thousand sheep on it.” “Well,there may be only eighty thousand by now.I'm not too sure.There's not a lot of feed for them,you know,and two of my wells have gone dry this month.So we've been driving the sheep around a bit.If you go straight across the middle of my farm,it's a hundred and ten miles.That isn't a great size for a farm in Australia,but it's big enough for me!” We talked for three minutes,and it was very interesting.I gave Mr.Flower my telephone number.He promised to ring me on my birthday next year. 31.“You can please yourself about the other seven figures”means _______.
