My mate is the 24/7 carer for his alzheimers afflicted Mum, saving the government thousands BTW but paid £40 a week for leaving his job to try and keep her dignity to the end out of sheer love for her, cheers gov, but anyhoo, everyday I help him out there seems a constant stream of people both on the phone and at the door vying to be the one taking the money off her that she's worked all her life for, it's terribly depressing, and he doesn't always manage to stop them as he can't be there constantly, which presumably is why she's 'On The List' and why she gets them so constantly, we see stuff arrive we've missed, overpriced products she doesn't need, policies she can't even recall signing for, most impossible to stop now.
CUNTS of the HIGHEST order and they deserve all they get, and I would encourage everyone to take the OP's lead as much as humanly possible, please, as we tend to think it's just the gullible who get what they deserve, but the weak, incapable and mentally vulnerable get it too.
Much respect to JamHamster for being so good at it, I wish I could be as good at that sorta thing and waste their time so well but I'm a terrible liar.

Damned straight!
It would be great if people, en masse (and if they had the time) could delay cold callers for as long as possible. You could pick up the phone, talk for a bit and then make out that someone's at the door. Ask then to wait, put the phone off the hook and go for a nice cuppa? ;-)
oh, and I hope you mate's okay, it's not an easy thing to do.
