When you knock on someone’s door in this fashion/ combination of knocks why do you do it?
Tap tap tap tap tap........tap tap.

This was first used in The United States by travelling street barbers who had either a small hand cart or bicycle. On the handle bars or cart handle they would have a hollowed out piece of hard wood and a stick with which they would tap out...... tap tap tap tap tap.....tap tap whilst calling out.......... “Shave and a haircut two bits.”
Do I get a promote?

    How times have changed. Today if a strange man with a handle bar moustache and a bag of sharp implements came Tap Tap Tap Tap Tap ...Tap Tap with a stick outside your door, you’d be straight on the blower to either the cops or a the local lunatic asylum to see if anybody is on the loose

    How was the shave? And did he offer to unclog your pipes afterwards?

    Very true @cabbles but least it’s a bit classier than what do you call your appendage thread from the last break

    Did the barber's use scissors or strimmers and did they offer a happy ending.?

    You sure it aint the blind man's knock?

    The story goes that a nun has got out the shower when there's a knock on the door, tap tap tap tap tap........tap tap..

    She goes to the door and says 'who is it?'

    A voice replies "It's the blind man from the village" so the nun doesnt bother to cover up, as its only the blind man and she lets him in and goes "how can I help?"

    The blind man replies "Cor, that's a nice pair of tits,now where you want this blind?"
