The weeds that grow in abundance in the local compost are a form of persicaria with deep, purple brown splotches on the leaves and the skinniest flower stalks you've ever seen.Ā To think I've paid for similar!!Ā Ā Now I have to keep pulling it up.
Namur is sunshine and blue skies but will only get to a magnificent 20C this pm.Ā Ā It's that warm at dawn at home!
Thatās as near as I get to the real world,š Iāve just looked on the letter, itās the 16th, next Tuesday, how stupid am I. š±š still looking forward to a day with Hostafan,š

I see they've changed the scammer with the scary Brian Blessed voice to a friendly , concerned female. I think I'll give her my bank details and password. She seems so niceš
FOUR phonecalls yesterday to say my internet was being cut off. I am sorely tempted to press button 2 just to see what happens next. Has anyone ever? AND 1 at 8.30 this morning! On the bright side it is wet so the garden will get a good drink.

Somebody in the legitimate companies must be selling data. I didn't get any calls until after I had a genuine problem with my telephone line which was hanging down onto the street. I started to get calls from people who wanted to help me with my non existent computer problem and later began to get the threatening ones. I've never listened right through either.
I have had several phone calls telling me the insurance on my Sky equipment has expired, but they have a marvellousĀ special offer plan to cover it for two years. (I have Virgin).Ā I started by telling them I was moving house next week. The second one I told I had cancelled my subscription as they were absolute rubbish. Today I just put the phone down on him. The next one gets some abuse.
I have discovered that when they phone if you donāt say anything, not even hello, it doesnāt kick, itās obviously voice activated. I did that just once and never had the calls again. Ā You can tell just by listening that itās not a genuine call.Ā

I do that routinely now when answering the phone to a number I don't recognise - ie not say anything immediately when I pick up. It puzzles the occasional genuine caller (eg the hospital appointments line) who probably think I am mad!
