On a more serious note, I've pretty much stopped answering the door unless I know I have a delivery coming, as I've realised no-one knocking on my door is doing it for my benefit.
My friends and family call first, anything important, like inspections or gas tests, they make an appointment, so all I'm left with are annoying sales visitors, charity chuggers, people trying to get me to switch my gas supply to my phone company, or my cheese supply to my sausage vendor or something.
Screw em all, I'm just gonna let them knock in future. I say that because I'm too polite to say it to their faces, it's easier if I'm just not in.
Honestly, the moment people starting knocking on my door to give me ten pounds and say 'have a nice day' is the moment I consider answering the door again.
