geordie fishmonger

just to clarify a few points and let you into a few trade secrets .....you dont require a pedlars licence if you do not take goods to the door .........in other words if you are taking goods to the door with you like the old duster sales men who present you with a suitcase full of there wares then you do require a pedlars licence ...............however........... if you knock on a door and ask if you want to buy anything then present a vehicle that is delivering you do not require any form of licence as technically your not selling at the door and what a lot of traders will do is then ask if you would like a selection brought to the door to save you from walking to the van.........therefore you have requested delivery of goods......... this is something I do my self as im actually classed as canvasing goods and theres no law to stop you canvasing nor will there ever be as polititians rely a lot on canvasing for votes .............. any way as we are now in the 21st century I personall have decided to stop knocking on doors as its not labour intensive this unfortunately will affect a lot of my customers who rely on me for a fresh meal and instead have opted for trading ion the internet hopefully this will give people a little bit more confidance to buy.......if any one requires any information e-mail me at stv.wolf"tiscali.co.uk or send me a message on ebay user name salmon.man as the website isnt up yet.

hello there I was just wandering through cyberspace looking for some ideas on a new business when I came across your posting ... you see heres the problem I am a geordie fishmonger...... noting down your details I have even joined your forum to put a point over, you see a long time ago it was hard to get fresh produce like fish to the centre of england so people like my self have traded door to door for many years now and made an honest living the trouble is now that small minded individuals like your selves looking down from your ivory towers thinking its not good enough for you. well let me tell you I have a customer base that includes a michelin star holder and tv food critics but am bordering being bankrupt because of the way people now view the industry. We are all aware that there are con men out there as there are in most sectors but you will find as with most things that a bit of common sence goes a long way as far as fresh fish is concerned any way. for instance....... check for a chiller unit on the van and that its not just packed in ice to make it look cool check for a company name on the vehicle ( only a fool buys from an unmarked van ) check for company logo's on clothing ask for a leaflet and if you are happy try the fish .............YOU NEVER KNOW YOU MIGHT LIKE IT............. point of fact if you try to be clever with some one thats offering you something on the doorstep regardless of what it is, to say F&*K OFF and slam the door in there face is in my opinion rude and ignorant and while it may make you feel that little bit taller for the rest of the day maybe you will say it to one of the gypsey traders (as we call them) Oone day and then it will be a differant matter all together................
