Ok, tonight im sat watching TV with my friends, relaxing when there's a knock at the door. I go answer it and there is a woman standing there. For the next 5 minutes she proceeds to tell me about Candis and the wonderful work they do for charity....i listen and nod, i used to get the brochure delivered before i moved house but never read it, just paid the £2.50 a month which is a pittance really and all goes to charity...so all good right? Wrong!
I tell the lady that I already give to 3 charities and regularly do voluntary work for McMillan Trust, my charity of choice (a similar one to the charity Candis supports), I am just about to say "But i guess i can make it 4" with a cheeky little smile and sign up. Unfortunately I never had the chance.
This woman suddenly starts yelling at me, not a raised voice, or a harsh tone, this was full-on yelling, verging on screaming...telling me im going to hell, that her charity was the only charity that gives all its proceeds to the charity (complete bullcrap) and the charities I support are fictional...
I had enough by now, and closed the door on her, but she opens the letterbox and continues the abuse...I'm a calm person, so i simply say sorry and walk away to my lounge to tell my friends what is going on and she starts pounding on my door! For about 40-50 seconds she hammers on my door, yelling all the time until I get sick of it and decide to go sort it out.
So i walk back to the door and open it, as i do this the woman is still hammering on the door even as i open it...she stands there visibly shaking with rage and says to me:
"So, are you going to buy my f*****g magazine or do i have to stand here all night you f*****g heathen!"
I stand there, and without blinking say:
"Knock yourself out" and close the door.
5 minutes later she's still pounding and yelling, so bad is it that one of my neighbours must have called the police and they turned up shortly after. I missed most of the conversation, but when they knocked on the door and i answered she was being hauled away, the last thing i heard from her was:
"He's the f*****g devil, your all going to burn in f*****g hell you f*****g w*****s, hell you hear me heeeelllllll!!!!!"
The policeman asks me if i want to press charges, I say that she is obviously mentally unbalanced and she has done no real harm so no, I dont want to press charges....then the policeman points out my neighbours garden gnome which is now inserted through the rear windshield of his car, to say the least I was absolutely shocked, this kind of thing just doesnt happen outside of the movies, it was surreal.
So how's your tuesday night, better than mine i hope.
On a plus side, i never liked that fucking gnome
