all from the some bloke at an insurance company.

I've been getting a few car insurance quotes, to see what i can afford to insure, and they're ringing me to sell me the insurance.

problem is, because i got a few quotes, i'm getting a call for every quote

little tip to everyone... give a false number

that was a schoolboy error robin, never give real details about contacting you, i don't even give a real email address unless it states you get the quote through the email like adrian flux etc. i like 123fake@fakemail.com

What if the fit bird turned out to be a dog (not in the literal sense obviously), and she nodded a little too much for your liking, would you still be tempted?
