    I tend to mess about with them, if someone cold calls me they're fair game - particularly if I'm in a bad mood!

    I'm always polite but firm. No thanks.

    They're only trying to earn a crust at the end of the day.

    Just put up a sign like mine


    "I already have Sky/Virgin/TalkTalk/BT phone, broadband and tv
    I already have double glazing, a conservatory and a new roof.
    I am already a customer of British Gas/EDF/Npower
    I am a lazy skank who never cleans so I have no need of a Betterware catalogue
    I am wearing all of my old clothes so I can't donate them to anyone in the Third World
    I don't own the house
    I don't do religion
    SO !!!!!! OFF!"

    works for me! ;)
