I never give out my cell phone (mobile to you) number, not even for a can of kippers. Especially not for a can of kippers, since I'm not actually very fond of them, though I do remember them from my sojourn in the Sceptred Isle...However, I love your poem...

Re: :Your Poems
Amanda you probably are so easily pleased, believe me it is easier to resuscitate a poem than write the journal each day.

Re:
They do indeed FS, and we should make it harder for them to find anything out.

:Your Poems
CC or is it CCT? I just read your last two poems. Excellent. They flow much unlike a professional writer or poet. Actualy you are a professional also. I was told once you put your work out "there" that's when you become a "professional writer". Your poetry speaks like short stories, so they could be either or. It is such a delight to read your writings. Amanda

I hate giving out so much information to various companies. It's getting harder and harder to find companies that do not need so much.

It is definitely a pet peeve of mine that everybody thinks they have to have the mobile phone number. It isn't enough for them if you just give them the land-line phone number with the answering machine. But, that is all I will give out no matter what, just because I'm stubborn. Some internet sites you can't even access if you don't give them a mobile phone #. That's okay with me, I just do without.

I only give my mobile number out, never my home phone, that one is for friends and family. I remember that poem, but I enjoyed it more the second time around. I must have been rushed that day as I do not remember my laughter as loud then, thinking of similar situations of my own I suppose.

Re: I believe Arthur has made a smart move, saving 150 pounds
Lo Pat makes one wonder what the mark up is on these goods. I guess that is a trade secret.

Re: Arthur played the merchants game and saved himself some money....
Probably Rumour, I can't see any reason for a Bank to want the number, the phone might have been stolen,

Yes I have strange thoughts as time goes by and I don't ever give out my cell number to anybody. I hardly ever use it.

Good for him!...C_C_T, I think these merchants want peoples' mobile numbers because so many (like us) just won't answer certain callers we recognize as recorded messages and/or useless attempts to get us to buy more stuff.

that way. It's good to have a wash machine that works well.
