SUrvey: your mail
« on: May 12, 2008, 04:23:57 PM »
Most stuff comes via e mail now. The excitement of posty coming round is much diminished. All the mail I get falls into one of five categories.

1. Crap (begging letters from charities with free biro)
2. Crap (offers of credit cards)
3. Annoying crap "We are having a wonderful time staying in a castle in Southern Italy during our cruise" BASTARDS Banghead
4. BILLS  Angry9:
5. Bank Statements  cry:

I may have a shredder fitted onto the letterbox. evil:

Same to you!  evil:


















Yes I know but only a couple of my advertisers pay that way. Most are too small to have the system set up and prefer to fish a cheque book out of their back pocket. Other work and expenses are both usually paid for in cash ~ for obvious reasons  whistle:

We had a great letter through our letterbox a few weeks back. It looks like we have a new PSCO who was making her presence felt by telling all of us that it was against the law to have traffic cones in front of our houses to 'reserve' a parking space and that legal action would be taken against anyone who still used them.








As you can imagine, everyone took her seriously  whistle:

Well it was typed and mass printed so it could have been done by someone else. Having said that I do happen to know an extremely intelligent PSCO down here who has become one as part of the selection to joining the force proper (not the same lass before anyone asks).
