to think the double glazing saleman should bog off when he can quite clearly see we are eating tea?

[ditavonteesed]

grrr, starts trying to have an argument with dh saying we do not have double glazing when we do and would not go away, he could see we were all sat eating a meal, and I had my eldrely gran round and I am very irratated.

"The house is rented"

honestly it's all you ever need to say!

Its your house and you don't have to speak to anyone you don't want to.

Just calmly and quietly close the door. No arguments and no reasoning.Enjoy your tea in peace.

connor I like, I have also just answered the phone and told someone that I don't live here and I have no idea how you would get hold of me. does anybody ever buy stuff like this.

Just close the door.

I once told one of the people who tries to stop you in the shopping precinct (to try some Dead Sea Spa toenail cream or some such) that "I'm sorry but I don't speak English" - and then walked away.

Just dont answer the door! Seriously, if we are eating here the phone and door get ignored. Its 30 minutes and if its important they will come back.
