I got a real life spook today!
After I had got up early and did a bit I shopping I went to bed as I was in need of a nice nap. Sadly, it was not as nice as I hoped.
I was awoken by a torch being used to look around my room and a fella hidden in the darkness saying “Hello?”. Because I was in a deep sleep, I was quite confused. Lucky for both of us the fella in the dark very promptly said who he was any why he was there. It turns out that he was there to get measurements so he could put up some insulation and not have my flat be as cold as balls! I am still baffled as to why this guy had been given the keys to every flat in the building and was able to just let himself in. In the UK there is a law that says that a tenent must be given at least 24 hours notice if access it wanted to a property. As you can guess, this was not done.
Going over it is stressing the crap out of me right now. Had I been awake/more aware and found someone was making ther way into my place, I could’ve attacked the poor bastard and did some serious harm. Also, the only reason he was saying “Hello” was that he spotted one of my bunnies as was not sure if it was real as they had frozen to the spot and was trying to get a reaction out of it. Looks like he could not even see me from where he was. I’m used to the sound of movement as my bunnies like to run about during my sleep (even jumping on my bed and giving my head a bit of a lick). Were it not for him speaking, I have no idea what would’ve happened.
And here I was, thinking that I would not get a good scare for this year’s Halloween. Now if you will excuse me, I’m going to board up my front door and place my fridge there.
