JUNK mail is bad enough. For some time we have also been bombarded with telephone 'offers' and calls (some pre-recorded) informing us that we have won fabulous prizes in competitions we have never even heard of, let alone entered .... if only we make that vital phone call.
I say 'we' because countless people receive these calls. I'm not getting above myself by using the royal 'we'.
