We registered with the caller preference service years ago. That has helped but some less than honest companies ignored it until a year or so ago. I even had one claim they'd checked and we weren't on it. We checked and we were still on the list. Most of the unwanted calls now are automated and the caller display shows as international/out of area or, if from the UK, the number has probably been spoofed.
I agree that telling them 'where to go' would be a stress reliever but it seems pointless when its a computer on the other end. I also can't quite bring myself to say those words but I am screaming them in my head. Not too long ago I had a real person trying to scam me and not a computer and I told them that I didn't know how they could sleep at night.

Back to the thread's topic
We got some cherry tomatoes, satsumas and a butternut squash. I plan to do the main food shopping in a couple of days.

While I did the food shopping I picked up a boxed set of the first 3 Matrix films on DVD. We already had them as individual DVDs but one had developed a fault and would get stuck at a particular point and we couldn't easily get past it.
