I tried - 'I'm a blood donor', as they don't believe in accepting blood, I also tried 'I'm an atheist', that didn't work either.
So the next time they called, I invited them in!!!!! Picked holes in the bible story, and I also asked them why when they celebrated mass did they accept wine as a representation of Jesus' blood if they didn't believe in blood donating.
Funnily enough they haven't called since.
yes you know why dont you? because you no lightweight jen and dont share your wine twice (well not to strangers)
when we were kids are mum threw the cat at the unwanted visiters ,this didnt work but the hose pipe did on there return so if in doubt get your mum the cat and a cheep hose ,then sit back and enjoy .
This is a tried and tested method for getting rid of the pesky blighters.
I'm so proud of my wife for doing this.It happened las year.
I was at work at the time, but the missis answerd the door to the pair of watchtower sellers.
They began with all the speil about religion etc, so the missis says "no thanks , but my mother may want a word tho, she's interested in all that stuff. I'll just go and get her but I will have to shut the door because the dog might get out. "
We have no dog, and the wifes mother lives 30 miles away in Salisbury.
So she left the 2 witnesses on the doorstep waiting, and waiting and waiting.
They stood on the door step patiently waiting for over an hour ! then left of their own accord.
An absolute classic, my wife sees it as revenge for when they ripped off her son some years ago for all his pocket money when he was only 6 . He answerd the door to them and sold him the watchtower mag by telling him it was a comic !
I am sorry folks but I do not think the Hound on the sofa is a good idea, it's cruel, and heartless - inviting the JVs in to "feed the dog" is a no go !!!
I ask you just WHAT has man's best friend done to deserve to be poisoned ????
Poor pooch !!!
Now what you need to do is get back to being close to the neighbours, then when the first gets hit, the word goes down the street and everyone is suddenly out

Revenge is sweet
Andy.
Nice one Andy, You can imagine if the whole street did it at the same time!! There they ALL are stuck out side all the doors!! Nice bit of Time And Motion!!
i'm with captain beaky..engage them in debate! my dad did it years ago and they never went back to the village, i did it here and i havent seen them here since either. one came into my shop once and i had to call im back cos i hadnt finished with him!! i think its called root and branch....
I had a visit from the god botherers once....It was on one of those rare occasions when I had managed to grab a lay in.....
There was a knock at the door and as it was 0900 I thought I had better answer it.
"Good morning" said thing on doorstep "have you thought about god today"
"No" said I "have you had breakfast yet"
"No " it said
"Well how about a knuckle sandwich" says me "cos you just got me out of bed,now go away and make peace with your maker before I send you to see him" I used a lot less words than that but I would get told off if I used the 2 words I actually said.
And even to this day they dont call here,oh and did I mention that I only had my pants on. Semi naked sumo not a pretty sight.
A couple of years ago I was 'tinkering' with a car on my driveway, the drivegates were shut and my two Dobermans were playing on the front garden, when these two well dressed people appeared at the gates, but still on the pavement out side. The dogs started barking, 'cos they don't like strangers just standing there looking at them.
Anyway, one of the strangers caught my eye and said "Excuse me, but can we come in and have a moment of you time to talk?"
I just looked at them, realising who/what they were and I said, "If the dogs will let you in, you can talk as much as you like!"
They thought about it for a second and left.
I've never seen them again!
I also subsbibe to the above view. You could see our front door from the lounge window and 60 pound of a Boxer launching itself at the window to get to the 'guests' always seemed to work. Funnily enough they never waited for anyone to answer the door!
