They try to make it look like it is from the government when really it is someone trying to get your money. I feel sorry for the people who fall for it.lilyredcloudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08273834954185323674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-61924472234541653812010-10-19T08:51:29.373+01:002010-10-19T08:51:29.373+01:00I used to hate the double glazing calls that came ...I used to hate the double glazing calls that came just as we were sitting down to supper. I great tip from a friend, which always works is, once they've announced themselves, you say "Can you hold on a minute please?", lay the phone down on the table and carry on with what you were doing. I don't like to be rude, but it works every time hee heeKathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04003521059890699861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-49508991999357027202010-10-19T07:52:54.293+01:002010-10-19T07:52:54.293+01:00The world has gone bonkers.

Went in to a new restaurant in our area, a big chain that has great food and is a treat for me. They also have a 'general store' you can shop in for gifts and old fashioned candies and such. As I was paying my dinner bill the lady tried to tell me all about their candies and even pushed some toward me! I cut her off in mid sentence. I know she was only doing what she was told but if I had wanted any more stuff I would have picked it up and pushed it to her! arghhhh.Recycled Cottage & Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13209720538924091082noreply@blogger.com
