pattricia Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 You did absolutely right in not letting this man in. I find this behaviour very suspicious to say the least. Well done you !!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minimo Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 I wouldn`t have thought any genuine person would knock on a strangers door and expect to be let in. Personally, as a woman living alone, I don`t open my door to anyone after `business` hours unless I know them. Edited cos someone might misunderstand `business` hours. That`s not mine but postie, gasman etc. (just thought I`d get in first) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave650 Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Edited cos someone might misunderstand `business` hours. That`s not mine but postie, gasman etc. (just thought I`d get in first) Oops misread that drastically Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digsy Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 I think my nads would have fallen off before I knocked on a strangers door and asked them if I could borrow a coat whilst I waited. Even then I wouldn't have the balls to do so. Boom Boom, get it. Ok Sorry this is a serious thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmist Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 I'd have put the outside light on to give him a bit of heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fibutton Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 PT you did the right thing - it's an awful world when we can't offer shelter to anyone, but he does sound very dodgy indeed, glad you're safe and well to tell the tale :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swan_Vesta Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Good on ya, I'd also contact the person to see if they recieved a visitor matching his description because (and I say this not in a patronising manner but in one where you can be assured of the maximum compliance) "As a disabled woman on her own" you thought it may be a ploy to gain entry to your home. If said chappy denies it then contact the old bill ....... Some little old biddy could be saved from having her head stoved in for a tenner.
