    I have just received a letter from Cabot Financial saying they will call on me on 6 April. What the hell do they want?

    They are a debt recovery company.

    I would suggest you owe them money. Maybe the default thing?

    Well they can go swivel. Somehow I doubt I will get a caller at the door. Do you think they will take a flight just to see little old me?

    I'm not ringing them. If they want to speak to me they can call me or come to my house.
