so all of my front windows (upstairs and down) and my front door are cracked open at present, so the painter can paint them
i am terrified
terrified that someone will shout abuse at me in the room i am in
terrified that someone will nip up the ladder to the room i'm not in and nick stuff / rifle through the house etc
terrified of all the people walking past having conversations which are even louder now
and also somewhat annoyed that the painter appears to have asked me to do that and then just buggered off for lunch :-(
and now he's saying he wants me to leave my front door cracked open all the way through friday evening? well, THAT isn't going to happen. as soon as he's gone, the door is closing, and the hell with that!
