My Dad was wandering around in Marbella a coupe of weeks ago. A bloke approached him trying to sell a timeshare or similar. My Dad bit, and the bloke and his cohort took him into a bar, free beer, free meal and so on.
Dad gets a bit fed up, so to get rid of them he accepts their invitation and ticket to some event at a hotel near Malaga. He is given a taxi voucher so he can get there and back for nowt.

Dad duly turns up at the venue, eats and drinks them out of house and home, uses his free taxi voucher (45kms journey), listens to some bollox about timeshares, then the salesman moves in.

Hello sir, have you enjoyed yourself this evening? Yes i have said Dad, and he also said thanks for the beer and meal in Marbella. The salesman then moves in for the Kill. Sir, have you ever considered owning a timeshare in southern Spain, blah blah blah. Dad replies, well not really, it wouldnt get used. Oh can i ask why you wouldnt use it, spain is a fantatsic climate, and is a great place to take holidays, etc etc etc, so my Dad says, yes i agree with you, salesman jumps back in, so what is stopping you committing, so dad says, I Like southern spain so much, that i bought a house here 20 years ago, but thanks for the beer.
