Hi there. I am just wondering if this is ok. I am pregnant and was in the toilet when my landlord knocked, then 10 minutes later he unlocked the door to come in when i was out of the toilet then. i ran and opened the door in shock, he looked shocked to see me and was acting all nice and said he is sorry but there was a problem with the heating and wanted to get someone to look at it... I am just wanting to know is this allowed? he did not ask permission by calling us if we where not there he was happy just to walk in... I acted ok towards him but i cannot say my husband will react the same way... is he allowed to do this? and if not what should i do or say in this situation because he kinda startled me and i dont need to feel like this while pregnant. thanks
