Just had a queer woman at the door.

Frank, I'm beginning to think you make this stuff up.

Well she was there and the neighbour waited in the front in case there was any trouble.

Fank

Oh I should have charged her for the door bell electric.

Frank

Encroyable!

Slipped up there, Frank......

You could just have closed the door, Frank

Why not take out a newspaper ad - you know, the kind that used to say "I am not responsible for my wife's debts".

You could say "I wish it to be known that my father left me his half of his house in his will. I already owned the other half. If anyone says or writes that I gained my property any other way, I shall sue them for libel and/or slander."

That would stop ALL the talk about it, around your neighbourhaood and online.

Simple! Do it.

Why don't you contact the police? That is harassment.

Elegran

I did close the door after telling her to get lost in a very rude manor.
Obviously if she had tried to enter the house I would have shoved the door against her.

Frank

Good advice, Elegran, which you and several other members probably gave when Frank first posted a thread about his inherited house some time ago, although it seems to have fallen on deaf ears!

That's a good name for your house, Frank!

Elegran

With regard to the suggested advert I think everybody would claim they had not seen the advert.
I got some abuse during the first week of March but I think it is gradually frizzling out.
I have heard some of the abusers have now assed away.

Frank

What's the matter with your typing today Frank?

Hi Ana

One of my daughters bought me a sign saying Frank's house and the other bought me a sign saying Granddad's house.

They are screwed to the wall in my porch.

Frank

I see what you mean Anna. I meant to say passed away.
I think I would be lowering myself to their level if I put grins on this thread.

Frank

Frank With two signs screwed to the wall in your porch, you should never forget where you live. Have to say, you certainly have whatever it takes to amuse me.

I've never liked the phrase "passed away" as a substitute for "died", but I really like "assed away". Well done, Frank.

The only small problem is most of the houses in the close have a sign saying Granddad's Granma's or Granddad's and Granma's house.
The bungalow has a sign saying Granddad's house which is not correct.
I suppose when my father was alive there should have been a sign saying Granddad's and Granddad Juniors house.

Frank

Good grief.

Frank can you give us a heads-up about what shocks to the system you might anticipate tomorrow? I think I need a full English breakfast to prepare myself for news of vigilantes outside your house or injunctions preventing you from attending meetings with local elderly house owners!

We don't have meetings with local house owners but I am banned from my local social club.
I am a member of another club about a mile further away and I have no problems there.
The nearest club was advertising for members the other day where as the club I am in is nearly full.
My club steward likes this situation as he does not like having a waiting list like he had a few years ago.
He understands why I am banned from the other club.

Frank

Why are the people in your close so mean with 'd' when it comes to Grandma signs?

The mind boggles as to why Frank has been banned, but you can bet your bottom dollar that it wasn't for getting too merry and leading a table top conga.

Frank I was referring to the meetings with social services about care home payments, but interesting that you are banned elsewhere, too!
