I only shred parts of any document that has my details on it......and I bought a very dinky little manual shredder for a quid......it is perfectly fine for the job......it takes ages to build up enough to send a parcel.....then it is someone else's rubbish to dispose of.

I frequently have phone calls asking for Mr Rashid, or Mr Iqbal...and when i say that no-one exists by that name at this address...they ask to speak to the person that the house belongs to....then they ask if we have a mortgage.......I always say YES....then they ask for the details and I ask for them to hold the line while I go and get them...then I put the phone on 'silent' and go and make a cup of tea....after a variable length of time I go and put the handset down.
