Right, just got in the bath and started shaving my legs when the door knocks. I decided to ignore it as I'm not expecting anyone round until one or any parcels etc. Then it knocks again. And again. And again. Loud Gestapo-like knocks. Really didn't want to have to get out of bath wet, get dressed for cold-callers or whatever but obvious they weren't going away, so I wrapped myself in a towel and looked out of my bedroom window. It's the bloody gas meter man again, who I told last week that DH would do the reading as our meter is in the cellar and the cellar is full of decorating stuff, so the reader would probably break his neck in there...
I opened my window (in towel, very attractive 
) and told him that we would do the reading and in any case, I was in the bath. He said "shall I call back when you're ready?" I said "erm, well, I'm not getting out of the bath just for this" and then he said "I'll come back in five minutes!" Now I'm getting a bit huffy. I've only shaved one leg and haven't even washed my hair yet. I said five minutes wasn't enough, so he went "Ten then!" WTF?
I am probably being U, aren't I? But ffs, he knocked my door like ten or twelve times. Wouldn't you just assume that no-one was at home if you got no answer after the second knock? Take the hint!
I reckon he will come back. I don't want to answer the door to him because a) he got me out of my bath and b) I've already told him that my cellar is not accessible!
