Example: Hello, you’ve reached Puddleglum’s answering machine, though I expect this is really a wrong number. In the event that you really did intend to call me, I apologize for not being home.

Hello, you’ve reached the cave of Tumnus. I’m sorry I can’t come to the phone at the moment, but I have work to do. Although I don’t know why I do it, my grandfather would never approve. I suppose it’s better than being turned into stone, but…I’m such a bad faun! (sobbing is heard)

A much-played message for a busy mistress by Ramandu’s daughter
Hello darling, thanks for calling me, the ever-delightful and boisterous Lasaraleen! I’m probably off frolicking with other members of the Tashbahaanian elite in a terraced garden or lively party right now, but please do not be offended; there’s enough of my charming self to go around! So do call back as soon as possible, and perhaps we can meet in one of my many palaces: I just bought the most lovely dress…
