It's bad enough getting those annoying phone calls trying to sell you something when you're trying to do a bit of gardening but to be dragged away from my potting compost to the phone, having to wash soil off my hands and settle down to listen only to be met with somebody telling me that they are calling on behalf of 'threegi' about 'veedoo' is really trying my patience. If you have to employ telesales personnel at least make sure they can speak intelligible English!

No, this is not a racist comment. I would say the same if it was any regional English accent which was so pronounced as to make the words sound like some alien tongue.
