I'm up the road from you. Well 12 miles anyway. I've had 2 calls from a so called Environment or Energy company trying to pass themselves off as a "national" organisation. "Hello, I'm "#aZVD" , your energy advisor." When I brusquely said "What's that about then",  he rang off. Pass the word on.    

I had a great call from O2 trying to re-new my contract. Hard sell fell flat when the guy said - 'you live in Rathfriland, ah, you must know George there, he knows half the town'. I said 'I guess I'm in the other half' and you could hear the air go out of his balloon.

Reminds me of the time many years ago now that I kept getting sales calls to my desk 'phone trying to sell me windows. Eventually I gave in and went with their pitch. I can only imagine the looks of glee the sales person must have had before the penny dropped when I told him that the place I spend my time in requires about 40 windows. Per floor.. and there were ten floors....

I must have quoted the Aviva advert ten times in our conversation and called myself the CEO of said company and..still.. nothing...
