Random Irritations

Monty Python’s Flying Circus springs to mind. “Well, we had it rough. We lived in a shoe box in the middle of the road…”
My favourite was ‘ we were so poor, my brother was knitted by the WVS and pushed through the letter box when no one was looking’

Which normally gets the astonished response ‘ You had a letter box!’
 
Would it be a good idea, to save a lot of email traffic, just to have companies notifying you when they don’t have sales?
I may just be missing things but there certainly seem to be more and more shops with permanent sales going on...they just change the name from Xmas to New Year to New season to Spring to Summer etc etc

I have 2 email accounts. One for official stuff, friends & family, the other for retail. Can’t remember exactly when I was last in the retail one.
 
I've been on a mission of unsubscribing, but not convinced they take any notice?
I wouldn't disagree with that. It probably gets rid of half so that's a start. For the rest, if they annoy people that much, identify them as spam and block them.

I go on a mission every so often to clear things out, it's quite therapeutic 😄
