A REGULAR caller in the days of the hard sell is the double glazing salesman, many could sell fridges to Eskimos.

I heard of a man who had new windows fitted, and six months later a representative from the firm called and asked the householder why he still hadn't paid an instalment.

The man replied: "Your advertisement clearly stated the windows would pay for themselves in three years!!"
