Sweet Justice!!

Just had a knock at the door, cold callers who flashed a TalkTalk ID, or what appeared to be one and started mumbling at me regarding internet or something. To be honest I couldn't make out a word he was saying.

I think they were trying to get us to sign up with them, but his manner and attitude really p*****d me off so I told him to just go away and do it NOW

I went into garage to have a moan about it to OH he says make a complaint, so as I go back upstairs to the phone I see out the window they are being chatted to by a nice POLICEMAN!! Still being spoken to as I type
ID's have been noted and numbers/details taken down from the looks of things!

What made us laugh was our mate sticking his head out of the pub opposite and shouting f******* nick 'em!! to the copper. Naughty but funny

There is a god.

<G> sometimes people DO get what they deserve!
You didn't actually tell them to go forth and multiply did you? (it sounded like maybe that was what you meant....)

Was very very tempted - but managed to restrain myself. Kept it polite, but had to be very firm.
OH says if he had opened the door and been subjected to that, he would have lumped him!!

I'd accept that there was a God before I'd believe you saw a bobby on the beat!

Don't talk to me about Talk Talk (previously Tiscali).

*makes Muttley type noise*

I miss cold callers to a certain extent, used to provide me with such cheap entertainment.

[Creemteez]

I miss Muttley! Tss-Tsss-Tss! Medalmedalmeadal!
(I REALLY shouldn't have had that glass of wine.......)

If we ever see a policeman in the village, the first question is "Can we help, you're obviously lost"

I suspect that he had been called out due to complaints about this pair - I can't be the only person they hacked off. It seems he pulled up in his car and made a beeline for them. The only peeps we see on the beat as such are the community support officers. Got a nice bunch of them round here.

We had a young woman cold calling for talk talk last year who was aparently 6 months pregnant with twins and demanded to come into our house for a rest and a drink. We told her no way cause we didnt trust her but she managed to get into the neighbours house. The police came to see her as well. If talk talk had realy sent her they should have done better research as half our neighbourhood is on talk talk.

We had someone from Scottish Power who came to do an "Energy Check" a few weeks ago. Eventually she admitted who she was after the OH told her who we were with. He asked for some literature to think about it, but she said she couldn't have any with her as it would be deemed advertising and they weren't doing that. She asked him to swap straight away but he refused. After telling her we were not interested about 5 times she was showing no sign of leaving. So I went downstairs to tell her that we have told her many times we are not interested and that she needs to leave us alone.

I don't think she was impressed!
