The rest just knock. And then leave a card saying " we couldn't deliver your parcel" or words to that effect. The favourite around my way is for the Royal Mail person to put a card through saying that the package is too large for the letter box. On visiting the depot to pick it up I find that my 'package' consists of a number of small jiffy bags held together with an elastic band. Each of the jiffy bags would easily fit my letter box but the the delivery person is too lazy and/or thick to remove the elastic band hence the combined package is too large. It must take the delivery person longer to write out the card than to actually remove the band. I had to collect yet another of these combined packages yesterday. I do wonder if it is a deliberate policy to ensure enough people use the depot in order to keep it open. The actually sorting of letters is no longer performed at the depot - that functionality has been centralised 40 miles away. -- mailto: news {at} admac {dot] myzen {dot} co {dot} uk |

Knocks on the door are rarely heard becaise of the layour of the house, but the doorbell sounds in any room (and optionally in the garden). Or, or course some aid/adaptation to assist a deaf person. I've got some odd, quite tight range PIR lights knocking around. Maybe a winter project is a PIR doorbell substitute. I was wondering about a vibration sensor on the door. That rings a bell? |

The rest just knock. Why do they do that? I can't here a knock on the door from my desk but one of the doorbell chimes is just outside the room I work in. Many seem to ring the bell but also knock on the glass or flap the letterbox a few times because although the doorbell is quite loud, it's in the middle of the house and you can't always hear it outside the front door (so no feedback for them to prove the doorbell works). I might do the same thing as a ringing tone and put another doorbell behind the door just for them. ;-) I have the parts sitting on the shelf beside me. A small 'glass speaker' that can play a selected audio file when the bell push is depressed. I am torn between a voice intoning "the bell has been activated, please wait" and the start of 'Time' from Dark Side of the Moon. -- My posts are my copyright and if @diy_forums or Home Owners' Hub wish to copy them they can pay me £1 a message.
