and have no
bailiffs after us (phew)


Around 15 years ago I had a baliff knock on our door, demanding a large
sum of money. He was waving a bit of paper from some court somewhere.
On careful inspection I pointed out that the name wasn't mine, and while
I lived at No. xy, the warrant was for No. 1xy.

He looked very carefully at the printed number & at the one on the door,
then recovered his nasty manner. "Nah. Same fing!"

I suggested he come back with a policeman, as the document proposed, and
shut the door on him. He shouted through the letterbox "You've not seen
the last of me, chum!"

I wonder when he is coming back?
