I've had similar forms from Hyndburn Homes , and have told them what I think in my best Lancahire dialect .

Re: Just A Little Intrusive!
all forms like that should be filed under "R" RUBBISH cos they go in the bin at our house.

Re: Just A Little Intrusive!
I think I would have told the person brandishing the form exactly where to go...but in terms so sweet, he would have looked forward to packing for the journey.
And as for the £250 sweetener...what chance do you think you have of getting your mitts on that Less?(Ok...more than the person who didn't fill it in)....my guess is...... a snowflakes!

I'd agree with that Cashy, but wouldn't it be good to fill it out with total opposites, or things completely at odds with the truth ? Well if they're going to waste your time ....... ?

Would not have been fair to have a go at the gas fitter, he was apologising as he passed the form over, obviously he is 'under orders' from above.
If you looked at the scanned copies I reproduced, you will see that I wrote M.Y.O.B. to the answers, if I hadn't filled it in they wouldn't get the message not to be so rudely nosey in future.
I have not made any plans to go on a spending spree with any winnings, I know I have more chance of being nominated for Britain's sexiest bum award 2011 than winning that.

Re: Just A Little Intrusive!
Less, if you check my post....I said I would do it sweetly...you catch more flies with a spoonfull of sugar than you do with a barrel of vinegar(there are some posters on here who would do to remember that old adage...no names, no packdrill!).
And as for checking the scanned document.......I have the eyesight that is envied by most underground moles of the area....so struggled to see it.......and I must admit to not really wanting to know what answers you put on the form

Re: Just A Little Intrusive!
Margaret, you can enlarge the thumbnails, I just managed it!
Less, you've given it all away-'British-white'. Prefered language-'English'. That slots you into 'Minority group, safe to ignore'. You'll be lucky if they leave your gas on!

Mags, don't explain yourself, I Only put it on for a laugh at it, too pathetic to be taken seriously.
Like most of modern life.

Your quite right Margaret, the ex-wife couldn't understand it when I suddenly changed and started being nice whenever I saw her, if you keep being nasty and spiteful they think you still care, by showing ya don't really gets up their nose

Re: Just A Little Intrusive!
You make it too easy for them. Next time remember- you need to be communicated with by sign language/other,you're a White/British/Chinese/Other,you're a Pagan Buddist whose prefered language is Mandarin Chinese and tick ALL the boxes for sexuality(they'll think you're a fun person).
That should get you a good score! Even FREE gas.
Oh, and tell them if you don't win the £250 you'll sue for racial,religious and sexual discrimination.
