    Lenny, if I was Mrs Lenny and you were offering to 'sort out' the kids marching across the lawn problem....I'd slap you.

    Before long, you will be trotting off to work and leaving Mrs Lenny to put up with the antics of the kids.

    It really winds me up when my OH has a go at someone outside our house....I don't want my car vandalising.

    Alright Pepe mate
    hello Lenny,
    just on the phone to Barclaycard Legal Dept waiting for their explanation as to why they are so obstructive in sending out CCAs ~(butmanaged to send me someone elses full financial details!) and then try to ignore customers hoping that they will go away:D

    I've got news for them! and it involves the Information Commissioners Office!!!
    :D:D stay wonky :D:D

    Thats a good point Twitty, which is why (unusually) I paused tbefore ganning mental. Thats what you have to think about aint it; do I want my car vandalised. Its the kind of thing that happened when I was a kid, only difference is that you could take matters into your own hands without fear of the repercussions.

    I reckon that the more you bang on the window, the more they will try and annoy you.

    I suppose when the baby arrives, you could encourage Mrs Lenny to chuck the dirty pooey nappies out of the front window for them to walk past :confused:

    Definitely right. What about, taking the dirty nappies out to them, opening them and pressing them in their faces? :D

    Mr Barclaycard...'we get about 2000 letters a week asking for CCA etc'

    Pepe...'dont you think that a letter saying ''you have sent me someone elses full details and I'm going to have to report you to the ICO under the Data Protection Act'' would go to the top of the urgent pile!'

    Mr Barclaycard...'um, yes, I suppose so, can I investigate this further nd get back to you?'

    Pepe...'Yes of course, I'm not unreasonable! You have 48 hours to confirm that you have stopped charging interest, apologise to me and the other customer and confirm once and for all the existence/non-existence of the CCA!'

    Pi**ock!
