Everyone gets the phonecalls for double glazing, PPI etc but today I've had three trying to sell me.....well I'll run through one of the calls
Caller: Hello Mrs K. I'm from ....... Have you got a few minutes?
Me: Well not really.
Caller: I just wanted to check a few things with you. Do you have a will? It's really important that you do.
Me: Yes thank you and it's updated on a regular basis....not true but an attempt to escape the next set of questions.
Caller:That's very organised of you. I wonder if you've considered your funeral. The costs of funerals are increasing at an alarming rate. Have you considered....
Me: I already have a prepaid funeral.......again not true but easier that saying I haven't.
Caller:Oh you are organised. There is one more thing we offer. We can organise power of attorney.
Me: (By now I was laughing). I may be getting older, having more blonde moments and putting the sugar in the fridge and the milk in the cupboard but I'm definitely not so far gone that I need someone else to look after my affairs.
Caller: (also laughing) Sorry just had to ask. Bye
OMG have I reached an age when I should be contemplating losing my way completely lol.
