door knockers and wanting to look in my loft

The joys of being at home all day;)

Earlier today a young woman knocked on my door and said something about loft insulation and wanted to have a quick peek in my loft.

Since she was quite good looking I invited her in to look in my loft but at that moment my wife decided to interfere and asked what was going on.

The young woman explained again and my wife said we didn't need more loft insulation as it had been done and she didn't need to climb up the loft ladder to peek in the loft.

Spoilsport:mad:

Then my wife asked why I had never asked the bloke who was there last week to have a look in the loft.

That is 4 people in the past couple of months who want to look in my loft.

There must be money to be made from all this insulation grants stuff.

I'm just wondering when the door knockers for solar panels will be round.

  • I never get any totty knock at my door :(, the last person to knock was an old bloke holding a bible. Fun to talk to but not much good to look at.

    Perhaps I could I could put a sign on the door that says "If your selling and your a man I have three already. If your selling and your pretty I need three" I will not buy anything of course but it can't do my reputation any harm getting lots of good looking ladies visiting lol

    Nah - Keep a half empty bottle of white cider and an axe by the door - Nobody will want to hang around when you open up holding those items! D
