We have what's called the preference service, by which marketing organisations are meant to screen you out on their database from mail, fax and telephone calls, in theory, you can be fined £4,000 for abusing the system, but it's far from effective.
We get calls that say "I'm conducting a survey", before launching into the big sell - the other week, I suggested to one that if her sales manager discounted the double glazing by £4,000, I wouldn't report her to the preference service and nobody would be out of pocket, but I don't think that she could grasp the concept!
Hang on! - The penny's dropped, this is Patrick, couldn't you load some fiendish explosive concoction on to that radio controlled buggy of yours and send it round to the neighbours!
