This morning

[venta]

Today, I got disconcerted by a door.


Coming downstairs this morning, I observed that the door between the kitchen and our front room was closed. This door is only ever closed when someone's trying to watch a film and other people are being noisy in the kitchen.

It was open when I went to bed.
I was (I hope!) the only person in the house last night.
It catches on the carpet, so doesn't "swing", it has to be pushed shut.
There was no obvious combination of open windows which might have caused a downdraft.

Oh well.

Is anyone else reminded of a Newman/Baddiel sketch ?

Forgetfullnes (you really did close it)

- I'm moderately sure on this one. It would have been very unusual, and I'm sure I remember looking back through to the kitchen as I switched the light off on the way up to bed.

Sleepwalking

- I can't rule it out.

Ghosts

- I'm assuming not. We've got not previous evidence of hauntage.

Subsidence

- I'll check with a spirit level when I get home. Should also help with the above.

Burglars (who were not in the mood for stealing things?)

- I did wonder. When we were burgled before it was by people walking in in the night, and taking selected items which weren't immediately obvious. Both doors were locked this time, though.

I think it's just One Of Those Things. I'm going with lathany's suggestion and blaming Ryan. Bloody parents who don't keep their kids in order, and let them roam around miles from home closing other people's doors :)
