    I don't even have an old fashioned doorbell..I deactivated it. I'm glad I'm not into all this new fangled stuff. Costs a fortune and causes all sorts of problems. You can't go wrong with a good old door knocker.

    We had a hefty brass knocker on the door we inherited with the house and people used that instead of the doorbell. Some people banged that bugger so hard that I thought we were being police raided!

    I would dive on the floor, hands in the air, shouting, 'It wasn't me! '..

    I like those lovely tinkly bells old-fashioned shops use... (must have been a cat in a past life lol)

    I disconnected ours too.
    It's so loud I nearly jumped off my chair when it rang.
    If people want to come in they can knock.

    The thing is you don't actually have to buy these things.

    That reminds me; the other day I was being constantly interrupted whilst browsing and posting on this site by a poxy announcement from Google telling me that I had been selected as a lucky winner of a Dyson Cyclone vacuum cleaner. As anyone else been accosted by this whilst on this site as I'm wondering if it's some kind of scam?

    Plus we don't need a flippin' Dyson right now as we've already got a decent enough Henry, so Google can go and do one as far as I'm concerned!

    I work in fraud for a major financial institution and yes, the pop up ads, the ads on FB and Instagram as well as all those emails you get for a free flat screen or gift card etc. for the cost of shipping etc. etc. All phishing scams. Stay away from them. There are some decent free ad blockers you can ad to your browser to stop the ads.

    When I want to entertain myself, I check out my junk folder e-mails...

    So far this week I have won several prizes (from supermarkets I don't shop with)

    I have me a (word rhymes with luck) buddy who is apparently horny and wants to give me a good seeing to. (Unless you're an oiled-up Tom Hardy, don't bother me, and even then, don't bother me)

    And I am apparently disappointing people in bed with the size of my penis... (two of those e-mails)

    I had a Dyson, Lenco - and it sucked (but not in the way I needed it to) Give me a Hoover Junior any day!

    We've got a Dyson too.
