Dh and I are usually up, drinking tea at about 8:30 am most mornings, unless we have an early appointment or agree to meet someone or SW. So someone knocking on our front door earlier yesterday morning was a surprise. It was some one looking for an Ann Cooper? We didn't know anyone of that name.. so Dh came back into the lounge to drink his tea.. then knock, knock again. I could hear the man saying, 'I'm the decorator come to paint the outside walls' I nearly choked on my tea! I've had that decorator book since the beginning of the month, he was to let us know when he could start.
He said he'd sent a text to me? I quickly got my phone. I only look at it to use as a phone, I don't use it for the internet so I don't look at it all that often. He had sent a text at 8:10 am to say I can start today!!LOL
We were still in bed then, anyway as it was all outside painting, he and his crew started while we carried on in our dressings gowns, with another cup of tea, as that first one was cold! I can cope with cold tea, but not my first morning cuppa!
Dh said we might as well carry on and have our breakfast, so we did, inside the lounge with the curtains closed. As we started to eat, knock, knock again! It was our grocery order from Tesco being delivered early!
Once we had showered and dressed later, we sat with our coffees and Dh said.. hope we can drink this in peace!!

So the decorator gave you 20 mins notice....good of him! Three callers before 08.30, must have seemed like a comedy sketch.
Hope by now you have had a hot cup! Sounds like a busy household. Hope the painting goes as planned.
It was a busy morning at your house!
Busy early morning at your house!
