tried to reach Richard

Richard phoned my home number. Then my mobile. Then sent a long SMS, which broke into 2 pieces. He asked if I was going to Starfest. Then he said, in the text, "I have a question I must ask you concerning Starfest." Sounded serious. I sent him an email asking what was up. And said that I wouldn't be able to make Starfest due to other commitments.
