Someone called me once.

As detailed on the back page of one of the computing magazines.
A quick way of getting rid of cold callers is:

"Oh......were you a friend or are you family?"

"**** Off! "

Works wonders.

Just make sure its not some distant relative calling first, ahem....

I honestly can't remember the last time someone that wasn't either a robot or a telemarketer actually phoned our house. All the real people we actually know phone our mobiles, it's very rare our house phone rings and it's a real person.

It is possible that your haste has cost you a Parker pen or perhaps a cheap alarm clock.
