LucyInTheRye Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 There was a knock at our door at 9.20pm this evening. It was a man from a charity (Karuna Trust) asking for donations. It made me feel uneasy as I wasn't expecting anyone and deliveries always come before 9. Possibly irrational but when I heard the knock I thought it might be the police. Apparently he came by around 6/7pm earlier this week and my husband told him it was an inconvenient time (kids bathtime) so he (man from the charity) thought later would be better :-\ (DH didn't tell him to come back btw) Has anyone knocked on your door late and unsolicited? Is it acceptable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LucyInTheRye Posted September 7, 2016 Author Share Posted September 7, 2016 I'll send them round to yours next time, Alice ;-)Meh. Maybe I'm being precious. Didn't want to not answer in case it was something important. Just seems late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goosey-goosey Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 It's definitely too late to be calling but just to say... The Karuna Trust are a worthy charity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LucyInTheRye Posted September 7, 2016 Author Share Posted September 7, 2016 Yes I've looked them up and it looks like they do good stuff. And I didn't mean I think charity is unimportant btw, my syntax was clumsy. Just if someone knocks that late I imagine it's urgent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugwash Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 I would not give donations to any organisation at the door. The only exception would be if I knew the caller personally and were aware of their involvement in the charity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
