just realised how to svoid being stopped by those trying to sell you stuff in the street, i was just walking near euston station i was approached by someone trying to sell me 'freebies' i was smoking a cig & said health & safety cant smoke in your workplace, snd scuttled off. whats your way of telling them to f.off

I normally tell them Im only out on day release , my parole officer is expecting me back by xx o/c and will they accept the open prison address as my contact as my old Ma's place got burnt down.

We don't suffer such things in my neck of the woods, we do have to tolerate Jehovah witnesses knocking on the door on occasions though.

I always just use the 'I'm on my lunchbreak' teamed with a look of urgency and a lot of faffing through my handbag!

I just have an imaginary conversation on my mobile, nobody seems to like to interrupt!!

[Cheekystar]

I talk in welsh or gobbdy-gook to them

[society]

I talk to them in another language.

Hi there wishwell am working on a building site 30 secs from euston square tube at the mo, and take a walk down tottenham court road every dinnertime to drool at all the tec shops there.
But they do get on your frigging nerves dont they keep approaching you for this and that dont cant they tell by my dirty boots that I am working and on my lunch break t@ssers.
Anyway what I do now is look at them in my most gormless and surprized look as if I did not understand and was not english and say one word in a me not understand you voice.
That word is mallaga and no that is not a spanish town it is the greek word for w@nker (the way I pronounce it that is (and Im not greek by the way)

I refuse eye contact, and if they do catch me, I walk away, saying I don't want to give them my money.

In the case of "charity workers" (chuggers!), if I am feeling a bit narky, I will have a chat with them about how much they get paid, and how they have no commitment to a particular charity, so all their blurb is just b*ll*cks.
