Neil: We don't have gas and electricity in this house
Roger: You buy your gas and electricity from British Gas yes?
Neil: We don't have gas and electricity in this house


And that's when he put the phone down on me, I was disappointed, I have another 3 minutes to wait while this wallpaper softens ready for sticking on the wall.

I will have to try harder to confuse the next one


One called a few days ago asking for me by name, I told him that I was very sorry but Neil was dead, he hung up as well.

Rog called me today too.

Rather than the curt 'I don't take unsolicited calls, goodbye', or the even curter 'Eff off!', I gave him your number, knowing you'd handle him better than myself.

Thanks.
