Didn't you say you were aspiring to look like a Hoxton twat?
Use a yellow kefiyah as a belt and you'll be set.

So what's wrong with my garage!

No, Renegade Carpark recently came out as a hoxton hipster. Me, I already look like a twat, no aspiring needed
(Although I have never worn a keffiyeh. I prefer 'so long you're in danger of tripping over them' scarves)

It's thoroughly delightful but quite a commute

Why don't you just change your number?

You will need to call your phone supplier (use your mobile), probably BT & explain the situation. Possibly you can get that number blocked from phoning you.
Changing a number would be very awkward.
However I solved the problem. somebody sent me a text message to the landline and this seems to have caused the problem. Don't know why the engineer didn't realise the phone number tied in with the SMS thing. We'd been wary of pressing buttons or indeed even picking up the phone in case it was a scam. However eventually I listened to the whole thing and pressed 4 which disabled the SMS thing (we don't usually get texts on the landline anyway). Immediately the calls stopped. Bliss. Obviously this shouldn't have happened and there's been some sort of glitch.
Mental!
This is why I don't like phones. (Well, one reason.)
Revieving a SMS text to a landline can be quite confusing.

Some of those that burnt horses, are the same that burnt foxes.
The newly designed BBC Sport webpage. What really pisses me off is that in a week's time I won't even be able to remember what the old one looked like.

Sounds like a Rage Against The Machine lyric.
