	My response to real estate people who phone and say "Are you interested in selling your house? I have clients wanting to buy in your area" Me:- "No, we're not interested in selling at the moment, but I will keep a note of your name. We keep a list of all realtors who phone. They are the ones we will NOT be contacting when we do decide to sell." realtor hangs up fast! I've been getting 2 or 3 of those computer calls a week for the last few weeks ............ the gentleman at the other end always has a very thick Indian accent. s xx
