Because a knock on the door doesn't quite have the same 'oomph' - and isn't as easy to hear as the very distinctive rattling of the letterbox?
Perhaps their knuckles are sore from all the others doors they've knocked on?
Maybe time for you to invest in a doorbell ??
so many options: none of them considered it seems!!

Its funny though, I did imagine you'd have some very nice proper box -American style, was going to put a piccy of one up but didn't want to in case you thought I was being sarky. (which I wasn't !!!)

Wow I am impressed with your consideration, you really are an angel arent you? The whole of this forum would do well to look to you as a shining example of true humanity. I feel truly humbled to share this forum with you.
Does it hurt on a morning at sunrise?

I agree.......people really should be more appreciative!!
I would plump up and flutter my angelic wings, but they tend to be more of this variety:-

Well obviously you wont actually see sunrise, not unless you are some sort of contortionist
But surely the sun shining out on us mere mortals must be a tad warmer than a vindaloo. Do you see the plumes of smoke as it singes the hairs?

Seeing as the sun is shining on you mere mortals, I'd say you'd be in a better position to answer your own question!
You plum.. Pmsl. :D
Sorry....it had to be done.
Back on topic. Letterboxes. They can be sealed shut you know.

I have a doorbell. One of those infared ones that you plug in. I don't have it plugged in...so that makes for good fun !!! :devil:
Bloody letterboxes. years ago the postie forced something that was really too large: broke it.
When I contacted the P.O., they said buy a new one and we'll refund you, but you will need to actually replace it yourself.
Kinda like being in a car accident and the Insurance company saying: go buy a new wing and bonnet, we'll reimburse you, but you'll need to fit it yourself. :joker:

I remember once a sales person came to our house and instead of knocking, ringing the bell or slamming the letter box, he decided to open up the letter box and shout through the hole asking if anyone was in or not. It was kind of creepy.

I've got an unusual postbox that looks like a beehive. Consequently some people walk past it and push stuff through the cat flap. Annoyiiiiiing.

I do not have a letter box.
Seriously, yesterday I had this person I didn't even know slumped outside my door, then they stuck their hand through my letterbox and peered through. I think it was a druggie, or a Belieber.
