nowheretorun, I love most people apart from peadophiles. Now,we were talking about my phone line problem and trying to get it fixed. The call-centres in the UK have been out-sourced to India where I presume the people are paid less.

The trouble *I* have been having is trying to understand an Indian accent. You would think a communication phone company would employ people who speak clear English.

Now then, I ask POLITELY for the person to speak slowly and clearly so that I can understand what they are saying, and the person on the other end of the phone who is supposed to be providing me with a service gets annoyed with me for asking them to slow down and speak clearly. It's not about not loving thy neighbour, it's about trying to get a phone line that actually works!

Rant over!
