Someone last week said they had sent me info twice....had I not got it? My reply was that it had probably been binned. The sorry fell on deaf ears!

The product still goes unnoticed.<br />Like you, however, I regret the number of forests which are depleted to produce the glossy rubbish which pours through our letter-boxes.

Now that there's caller ID and I use a cell phone...I seldom receive calls from anyone selling something. I consider advertising a sometimes not so subtle form of propaganda and brainwashing.

The wrong number saga is something else and it might be worth ringing your phone provider, whether BT or anyone else, and asking them to investigate why this is happening. Make the blighters work for all the money we pay them every month. :-)<br /><br />It looks as though you're managing to insert images, which is great. Has anything changed in the way you do it or is it just that your normal method is working properly again?Perpetuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01214396019726161983noreply@blogger.com
