The things people say (2)

Way back in my youth, I was an enumerator on the 1961 census. It mostly just involved posting forms through letterboxes, and then going back later to collect them. But every tenth house had to have a more complex form, which involved knocking the door and asking a few questions - one of which was whether the premises were purely residential, or whether any sort of business was being carried out there. So I knocked on the door of this house, and a lady answered, and I went through my spiel. When I got to this one question, I said "Are you wholly residential?", to which she replied indignantly "Certainly not - we're all Roman Catholic!"
