Stop that bloomin' junk mail!!!

Discuss your wife's objections to the fifth dish going up or your concern that there's far too little violence on the box these days. You can also introduce yourself here or just chat about anything. Remember, no keys or files allowed.

Register there and it should stop all that wasted paper being dropped through your door, unfortunately, it won't stop those annoying council tax bills...

This applies to the UK only of course...

Very true, plus there's a nifty little code that prevents withheld numbers available too, it's *227# (to disable it's #227#)...

(For Virgin (formerly Telepest) customers in North London, West London, Langley, Windsor, Slough, Birmingham, North East England, Scotland & South West, the code is 1478 and 1479 to disable)

But there is a slight problem that some people can't call you, but tell them to dial 1470 before they dial your number...

There's loads more to play with here (and they're all totally legal):

If I had a log fire it'd make great firelighters, and you can get things to compresspaper into logs to burn on a fire, but as I haven't got a log or open fire, I can't do that so it's all going to waste....
