It’s certainly something I haven’t done before, and I had a strange feeling that there were eyes 0-0 watching me from several windows along my route  especially the ones with the Neighbourhood Watch signs!

On returning to collect the surveys a week later, in the pouring rain, I felt slightly nervous about knocking on doors and asking if they had completed them. There was no need for my nervousness, as I think the sight of an extremely wet bedraggled figure standing alone dripping rainwater all over their doorsteps was enough to melt anyones heart…or at least it seemed to! ♥

 Would I do it again…..probably, but I’d prefer a dry day!!!!!!
