Why do we have to put up with it?
Got home yesterday with two huge carrier bags of kids work from school and there was a larger than average pile of junk mail on the door mat. House gets snowed under in paper that we don't want. There was so much stuff all over the kitchen worktops I couldn't get the dinner ready until I'd dealt with it. You can't just shove it in the bin anymore so it has to be recycled. But you can't just shove it in the recycling box because you have to take the plastic 'windows' out of envelopes first and you have to remove any bits with your name, address and account/customer numbers on. So that takes ages. I really don't have time to spare to do this all the time! It's another chore that we are all forced to do and it makes me so cross. And it's all crap that we don't want. When is it going to be banned? That postman who told people how to avoid getting the stuff was in trouble I beleive? Why?

On the subject of junk mail... even ordinary junk mail that they don't want back.
