Some chap knocked at the door during pudding tonight, asking for me to fill in a "quick five minute form" for the charity, and the moneys wouldn't start coming out until January. No leaflets, nothing for me to take away and read, just wanting my bank details.
He said he's been approved to canvass the area by the police and council, and had a badge with his picture on it, but argh.
Does anyone actually sign up for these things on their doorstep? I make charitable donations that fit within our household budget - surely it isn't reasonable to expect me to make a financial commitment on a whim?!
My DC opened the door before I got the chance to see who it was - next time I won't be opening to strangers at that time of night especially.
