Telecon

Why does Telecom think that if they send a couple of spotty youth to my door, who call me "madam", in the middle of the day, that I would change to their product?

What is their marketing team thinking?

oooh - Were they the same spotty geeks as on the Xtra ads?

Oh boy. I'm convinced they look for users of the opposition's service - they seemed to call regularly when I lived in Welly and was on TelstraClear.

Luckily they're easily dissuaded, whereas the Herald's spotty youths were annoyingly persistent when last they called.

Tinks, no sadly, if it was them I would've invited them in for a cuppa, and then made them fix all my IT problems.

Hers,perhaps it is a very jetsetting sort of career.

Stephen, I think you're onto something. They were definitely looking at our cable when I answered the door.

Yep had them here too.
Well, almost.

I saw them coming and didn't answer the door.

Do you know those spotty youths pushed the doorbell twice AND knocked twice! Persistant and spotty.

Anne, I would never have known.

Gin makes me very forgiving of such mistakes, and also I make them myself frequently.

I always want to correct them like in Ab Fab with "ouiselle! Mademoiselle!"
