Answered the door at about 6pm last night to find "Ray the fish man" trying to sell me some fish

I just told him I was not responsible for the fish buying duties in the household and wasnt interested.

Since when did people buy cod on their doorstep

Although when my mum came home she asked why i didnt buy any as it would be "handy" didnt fancy buying fish off of the back of a lorry tbh



Whats the most random thing you have had come to your door?



I got offered some power tools once. Really good ones for well cheap. So they were 100% stolen
Other then that its just loads of irish people trying to sell us a driveway

Something smells a bit fishy about that





Sorry, I just had to.

We have a fish man deliver our fish. He comes from Grimsby so is uber fresh. Talks like he comes from their too. His van was stolen the other week for a ram raid or something

My dad lives in a small village in portugal and every tuesday the fish man comes round, an the bread man on another day. Where he is its very cut off and its a long way to any shops. But to sell them, on the door step in this country is a bit wierd.
