You're lucky; I called the police when there were people downstairs in my house and it took them 2.5 hours to get there (the station is a 3-5 minute drive away).Fortunately I had my mobile and was able to call the police. They arrived within minutes and arrested the guy.
Wow, I'm amazed that so many people dont answer their door!! I have to admit I ignore mine sometimes but only if I'm in really rotten humour.
So much for "If your Irish come into the party there's a welcome on the mat!" haha
I always open the door.
If I don't want to buy/contribute/listen I say "no thanks" and close the door.
What do you say if its a bunch of unexpected visitors and you were planning a nice big glass of wine and a plate of spag bol in front of the telly (in your pjs and slippers)?
They dont have right to enter peoples property and inconvenience them in order to make a living. A lot of them are somewhat dodgy - making a living by preying on unsuspecting vulnerable people such as pensioners is not a noble profession.
I invite them to join me; happiness is derived from our interaction with the people around us, not the possessions.

Thats a bit harsh, not too many professions can be considered noble, but it takes a real thick skin to constantly be rejected in the hope that you pull through one call a day to meet your target. Maybe it is noble to go through this hell to provide for a family than it is to talk down or be unnecessarily rude to these people.
