    This is the reason why peeps shouldnt post there moby numbers/email addy's on forum web sites as anybody can see them,without signing in either.Yep lot of sad peeps out there!who get a kick out of doing this sort of thing
    So best to PM them to peeps you know.

    At the end of the day, when you're at home, exhausted, from a hard days graft, the phone goes and someones piping on about some inane ****e. It gets beyond a yoke ( :-[)

    Baffles me why anybody would want to do that for a living

    Get yourself registerd with these guys

    http://www.tpsonline.org.uk/tps/

    Is it actually a legal requirement and not a voluntary thing.
    It won't stop a few unscrupulous organisation, your daughters friends or cmopanies whom you have unwittinglygiven your permission, but it should stop the vast majority of cold callers.

    I would also recommend that when you do the electoral role that you opt out of the "edited" register.
    You cannot opt out of the unedited one, available to the police, goverment etc. but you can opt out of the "edited" one which practically anyone can buy for direct marketing.
