Minimal Assembley - Tesco Finest 7ft Xmas Tree
Useless, in my opinion. Over 50 pieces to fit together despite its claim to be "minimal assembley". The quality was not up to much either. Especially when it cost just under £50.

Personal data security and overseas callcentres
I've recently been plagued by daily phone calls from India purporting to be from Alliance and Leicester. They ask for my "security details" before they will tell me what the call is about.Needless to say I refuse to give any details until they tell me what it's about.
