I was visiting one of the outliers of my portfolio - a delightful Grade II* cottage just south of Chipping Campden - as the tenant had reported a strange problem concerning 'noises' coming from the fixtures and fittings.
Upon arrival is was obvious what had happened and I called in the necessary workmen to complete the repairs. Over the years the original doors had warped and were no longer fitting the frames, causing them to creak and move at all hours.
The carpenters arrived quickly and as I was helping make a brew, I overheard them having a bit of a tizzy over where to start work. But this was soon resolved when one of them pointed firmly at the front door and shouted, 'No. THAT'S the one I'd sand.'
And then I shagged the fortysomething tenant. She's a famous writer too.

It was the combination of po-faced and outlandish that made the tales so successful.
