I HATE Answering Telesale Calls.

#ThrowbackThursday.

Caller: Hi my name is Mark Trotter from > insert company name here<.
            How are you today ma'am?

Me: Hi.

Caller: Ok we are with >insert company name here<.

Me: Can you please quickly tell me what this is about?

In 2012 I went to NL for the summer and spend time with my best friend and also other family and friends. I had the Fujifilm Finepix at the time, so my photos aren't really hi-def when compared to the Canon 600D which I bought in August 2013.
