    Got a 'cold call' about 15 minutes ago.

    Nothing unusual in that, plenty of people do.

    Didnt know it was a cold call when the phone went but once I picked up the phone, I could hear the chatter of the call centre. So, I didnt say anything and I heard 'Hello? Hello?'

    Then I though **** it, saying this number is on the TPS doesnt give me much joy so, in my loudest voice I shouted 'BOO!' down the phone. Hahaha on the other end I heard 'What the f8ck was that?' then put the phone down.

    I feel quite pleased and at one with myself.























































    Expect I'll get another call at about 2.45am next
    I couldn't give two fornicators! Yes, really!

        It must be quite nice to be raking in a healthy tax efficient 6 figure sum to build systems that do people out of jobs without having to do anything so dirty as make a cold call and then be able to bully those on the bottom of the ladder.

            Bleedin' ell! First SB and now DA. How come all CUK's normally sensible righty sorts are sensitive bleeding liberals tonight?
