    I just don't answer the door unless i'm expecting visitors. Simple really.

    You dont get unnacounaced visitors? We have far more unnacounced visitors than cold calling salespeople etc

    Sounds like a very much your version of it, I very much doubt it was as you say, not the breast feeding but you saying he just ran off with a red face!

    sorry??? I opened the door, he saw baby at the breast, went bright red, muttered some apology and legged it down my driveway to join his mate doing the calls with him....which bit sounds so unbelievable?

    I love it when the God bother's come round-they love it when I engage them in a prolonged conversation about just which bits of the bible the believe and which bits they choose to ignore and that despite a full century of scientific insights attesting to the antiquity of the earth, they believe that the entire cosmos was created six thousand years ago. This is, incidentally, about a thousand years after the Sumerians invented glue. Religious nutters- I love 'em (just not the muzzies though, those guys are proper mental).

    I do the same never answer the door unless expecting visitors. Once in a blue moon I may get someone come who I'm not expecting but most people in that case with no answer but with a car in will phone whilst on the doorstep (I could be in the bath/gone to post a letter) so my not answering unless I'm expecting someone still hasn't been a problem.

    In the 3 weeks ive not been at work we have had 1 guy trying to sign us up for n power energy and thats it, we dont tend to get many cold callers

    'No cold caller' signs are not legally enforceable - i.e it is not a crime for a cold caller to ignore them and to knock at the door

    Sorry but some regions in Scotland they are absolutely enforcable!
  • As an atheist, I do actually have a copy of the bible. Next time I get religious nutters round with their kids I am going to produce it and start reading passages to the kids, the good ones that they dont tell you at school! Lets see if they turn up again!
