NanKate, you just reminded me of a double glazing salesman who came to give us an estimate. I loved the stained glass, leaded windows in our hall and had no intention of replacing them. It was other windows that we were interested in. The salesman stepped over the doorstop, made no attempt to find out what I wanted, looked at my beautiful windows and said 'we'll have them out and replace them with nice picture windows'. I turned him round and put him straight back out.

Hilarious, Kitty. You do have to wonder about these people sometimes, don’t you? ?

That gave me a laugh Kitty

Sometime back a young man came to our front door offering double glazing.
As you will see we already have double glazing I replied.
Well what about your front Door?
You mean this one where we had a wooden stable door especially designed?
Yes we could easily change it to PVC .

I was not amused ?

Phone rings - it's a number similar to DD2's but not hers

Me: Hello

Eddie: Hello Mrs Lester. I was talking to your neighbours about their loft insulation and they say it hasn't been done to the latest guidelines.

Me: Ours has. It was done last year by British Gas.

Eddie: Oh. Erm, what about your cavity walls - have they been filled?

Me: My house is built of granite and the walls are 18 inches thick.

Eddie: Well, I'm sure they would benefit from cavity filling anyway.
