Just had a knock at the door, opened it to find 4 yes 4 people at my door.. from St Lukes Hospice something about a lottery that i should pay them money each week blah blah

I told them I would love to help but I'm skint!!

Why does it take 4 big burly peeps to come to my door. I felt awful saying no and I think this is why they do it... can you imagine most of my neighbours are elderly and probably wont even open the door Fish Fight

I hate people that come to your door or phone you. You can't walk down Southend high street without being stopped half a dozen times

I felt really pressured... If i physically had money I may have signed up.. But knowing it would put me in my overdraft was enough.. Charity starts at home and all that!

These days I just say "I've been supporting this cause for years, keep up the good work guys" at least they can't hassle you any more.

In meadowhall - "Are you in the AA?" "Yes luv"
"Interested in Sky?" "ALready got it luv"

My nose is sooooooooooooo long and I'm going straight to hell lol

I walk the other way with the ones on the street and never open the door to the other ones :s I hate the in your face approach, it just makes a person uncomfortable. I did some money collecting on the last 24hr rett event but stayed back and let people come to me if they wanted
