You gotta love the Irish sense of humour when it comes to canvassing time!

    Got this as an email this morning from my friend who tells me, this is on his front door, and its the first thing any potential canvassers see!

    I personally thought it was classic!

    Haven't you guys thought that perhaps the person in that other thread had seen the notice on the OP's friends house?

    Just noticed my next door neighbour put a sign up stating that if a canvesor was from FF they can F-off! Personally I'd rather confront them and invite them in for cheese and crackers before throwing them head first out the window.

    A big yellow bunch of canvassers accosted me today like a bunch of oversized smiley bananas. I was walking my dogs at the time and the little one had just done his business. So I was preparing to clean it up when an overripe eldery member of the gang tried to shove a leaflet at me.

    She was blabbering something but I had my headphones on (and no free hand to take them off). I pointed out to her "I'm a touch busy here" what with trying to control two dogs with one hand and clean up with the other. I have no idea how I was giving out the "Come have a chat with me!" vibes and how did she expect me to take a leaflet? With my teeth?

    If only you could have taken the leaflet and used it to clean up the mess.

    Disappointed.

    I thought it was going to be a retelling of the Waterford pigeon fancier story.
