    People who say things like 'I will 'get' you to go to the shop for me later'.
    No, how about 'Could' you go to the shop for me later? Please.

        It's the way you phrase something, like a request, and then add the magic word of "Please"................and the last thing I would say was that you were "Thick"!!:dunno::heehee: Have another glass of wine and enjoy!!:snork:

          I always refuse to give my details. If I'm paying by credit card that doesn't need my details as long as the pin number is correct. If I'm paying by cash there's no reason at all to want the information. If they insist, my name is M. Mouse and I live in Mouston post code - ID1 0TS.

                          It takes more time to scan and email than to fax it. So that is why I still do it

                              Hmm, over here just about every printer/scanner/copier is also a fax machine.

                              Don't you print things? Got me curious now :scratch:
