It wouldn't be difficult to believe though!

Its an urban myth. Although I'm sure if you did try it there would be some kind of charge made - something like hoax calling?

Wasting police time probably.

What is with you just now? Got a serious chip on your shoulder. I would suggest when they said the nearest car was an hour away, that would mean an hour away from being able to get to you. Anyway, its a bloody urban myth that has been relayed a countless number of times.

Anyway, not getting into an argument with you Ralph as the entire story is a lot of guff.

My last words on the subject MBK. You're good enough at voicing your own opinions when it suits.

You just seem REALLY grumpy about EVERYTHING just now.....perhaps it's the snow.

MBK - don't sweat it. Sometimes people on here don't get the jokey side of things.

Their problem - not yours hun x
