Romeo, good initial call, personally I would like all the 'filler' words taken out....
ie: 'Currently' 'to the' 'at' 'with'; and replace 'on' with 'QNH', so we know that as well as you having the right pressure, we also know that you do not think it is the QFE.

Thats a net decrease of 5 syllables, it all adds up if you are busy.

And another thing, as previous replies have said, dont speak too fast, just a normal speed of delivery, as we are probably trying to write it all down in a legible manner, if we have to ask for a repeat it is lost time.
