Doorbells you have tried that haven't worked

[Eric the Half a Bee]

I remember the date - 27th March, 1999. I was 21. I grew fed up of polishing the snails in the garden and went indoors only to find the postman had delivered a parcel to the wrong address.

I took the parcel to the correct address, pressed the bell but heard nothing. It was one of those old ceramic knobs that had the word 'press' on it. I pressed it several times but it obviously wasn't working.

I thought I'd try knocking on the door but that wasn't working either as nobody could hear it on the inside, so I left the parcel on the doorstep and walked away. Who knows what might have happened otherwise?

Mine isn't working and I can't be arsed to get it fixed. As I leave in a rural area with addresses all over the shop i only ever get delivery men looking for places.
As long as the post man, who has been the same guy for 15 plus years knows that's all that matters.

That was a long chime ago.

My own. It's a cool one. Like the Pompey chimes. Looks cool too.
