Not strictly true. In fact, not true at all, if I knew where you lived, I'd do it just to prove it can be done... [/b]

I'm speculating then, but would it require someone to access my line, clip one of those crocadile thingys onto the cable and plug a handset in? That being the case, unless they spent hours and hours on the exchange or what ever, disguised as a maintenance worker or similar, it still shouldn't register on my bill? And surely the company that rang me to enquire would be Talk Talk, or at least mention that they were representatives of Talk Talk, rather than simply confirming my number and then trying to send me a new one? I will endeavour to contact Talk Talk again, but as with all telecommunications companies, its probably quicker to write to them, (they really are a lousy advertisment for their own service).

The last time I was broken into incidentally Kriz {1990} the Police wanted me to list everything missing as they were convinced it had been ransacked good and proper. We pretended to be shocked and distressed, but on viewing the place we realised straight away that it hadn't. The door had been half forced and jemmied to the point where the lock was partly disabled. But I had a good neighbour who owned an Alsatian with serious attitude. He'd kind of repaired the lock, and the dog had scarred the intruders off. We meanwhile had hot footed it Turkey, without really tidying before leaving, hence the apparent state of the flat
