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 ?

If it were here - we would blame Ryan. Feel free to do so, he won't care.

That leaves as possible closing sources:

Forgetfullnes (you really did close it)
Sleepwalking
Ghosts
Subsidence
Burglars (who were not in the mood for stealing things?)

Are you a mutant?

Hmmm.. Prophetic dreams, and now things moving in your sleep. Maybe it's your latent mind powers revealing themselves?

COUNT YOUR PANTS!

You may have a case of gnomes...

I worry at times that the curtains in our house have a similar self closing ability given how much time I seem to spend opening them.

But then I remember who I live with.

Ha ha ha! I am the poltergeist! I have all the powers of evil at my command!!

I know what I'll do. I'll close this door. And then when she comes down in the morning she'll be all freaked out and she'll say "But I'm sure that door was open" and then she'll think and say "yes, it was definitely open, I wouldn't have closed it".

Ha ha ha ha ha!!!


And in answer to your question no, it didn't remind me of a newman and baddiel sketch. :)

I snuck back to England in the night and closed it.

There. Mystery solved.
