"Can I count on your vote next Thursday" .... from a chap in a blue rosette when the whole front of the house is a sea of red posters .... nice bloke though, I kept him chatting for some considerable time ... ;)
If I get a call like that and they ask hows your day's going or how how are you today Sir, I always ask them what are they trying to sell and put the phone down!
Oh I have just come out with a belter.
I went out of the back door to put some rubbish in the bin. When I came back in I told Mr O that the skies are clear but there is no sign of the Northern Lights.
He then pointed out the back garden faces South
The one that gets me is when you're in the doctors, somebody always says something on the lines of "hello mate not seen you for a while, are you OK?" I mean would you be sat in the doctors if you were OK.
