Grandma Wilson’s Voicemail
A real voicemail, 0:36
Nine seconds of my grandma’s voice, saved on an old phone. I can’t call her back.
“I thought you were coming to see me. Give me a call.”
Each one is told in the storyteller’s own voice. Some were recorded on VoiceHistory and turned into short films. One is a grandmother’s saved voicemail. Turn the sound on.

A street party in the rain, a race, a neighbour’s dog, and the coronation mug she never got.
“I had the indignity of having a tetanus injection in my bum, and when I got back the street party was all finished and I didn’t get to receive my coronation mug.”

A runaway rabbit, a grandad who loved his garden, and a suspicious casserole.
“But we did have an awful lot of rabbit casserole that night, I think.”
