In the end he made me buy 2

yeah stop being a pússy

He kept saying "get one for your girlfriend" I was alone and didn't mention her so I think he thought I was some sort of player. That's why I bought the second one.

cross the road? or failing that deck him

Why didn't you just say "she can read mine"

Yes - say you're already signed up to that charity and 'good luck with finding others', or in this case, you already have the book.

There is no comeback to that.

I don't like that form of selling. I give a lot to charity, but I do so on my own terms, in my own time.

It must work for them, so fair dos. But I am not a fan.

Tell them to eff off, failing that pretend your mad.

Nut him

Carry around a bible and if approached, get it out and ask them if they have a moment to talk about the works of Jesus Christ. Reckon that's get rid of them.

You could say NO.

Where I live super-markets let Boy-scouts, kids sports teams, all kinds of organisations do the bagging of groceries for tips. You have to tip them (they tell you) then you have to re-bag everything as they will put a 2-litre bottle of cola on top of your bread. amongst other destructive practices for which you have the pleasure of"tipping" them.

I'm late for a meeting is my standard line, they are all over the place around Kings Cross

I know how you feel quebecelt.

Tell him you are subscribed to the Hoddle theory and buying the shítty joke book would be akin to devil worshipping.

get your bible out and read a few lines until he falls asleep

You have a bible. Read a random passage to him in a loud, preacher's voice for a while, then finish and declare that the passage shows why you are not buying one of his books.

They are called 'Charity Chuggers'.

Anyhow, avoiding Chuggers is fairly easy, put earphones /headset or even your phone to your ear, put on your best Robert Deniro in Taxi Driver 'Don't fúck with me face ' and strut! they won't bother you.

My first job in London was as a chugger. It was hilarious but I only lasted 2 weeks because while very well paid, it was one helluva task to keep that smile on my Aussie face.

What if he gets dead into it? One I don't have a clue what I am talking about and two I will have to spend 30mins stood talking about Jesus to a guy who probably has a knife in his sock. Not to mention attractive girls will think I am mental

So he made you buy two. One for you, one for your girlfriend?

while very well paid,

Charity work?
