I always fancied a doorbell that played the Mission Impossible theme tune, kind of like a countdown to get to the door before your visitor explodes…

It plays the theme from Mr Benn.

Ok for you children, Mr Benn was a cartoon from back in the day. A little man who went to a fancy dress shop every day. When he would change into the costume in the changing room it would transport him into an adventure – depending on the outfit he was trying on….

Anyway, everyday at 3.15, my doorbell will ring at least 20 times. McGinger considers it funny to stand with her finger on the button. She thinks that I will think I have a visitor and run to the door to greet them. It worked the first time, but a year later it no longer works. Even I can catch on to some things! Instead I do my “happy dance” to the theme from Mr Benn….
