Pigale - it wouldn' t have worked given in the plural. The sentence had to be able to be punctuated from both the male and the female point of view.
You were nearly correct with the 'please miss' one- only a couple of modifications needed...

That, that is, is. That, that is not, is not. Is not that so? That is.

Hi, Rusty!
How are you today?
I did put up the clue and Jazzgirl sorted it out for me!
I'm ashamed to say, though, that I ought to have been able to see the correct parsing! I was just fixated by another idea I had in my head!
Your lack of bell, and possibly doorknocker (?) put me in mind of when we were children going round to "call" for our friends..... ... quite literally we often did just that .......stood outside their doors and "called " their names!
(it never occurred to us to ring the bell or knock on the door!)
But, seriously, think of your visitors' poor knuckles? ( or should that be your poor visitors' knuckles? This punctuation malarkey is getting a hold......)
Maybe you should have a nice brass doorknocker?
So far as I know, we don't have those two stores near us - more's the pity!
Did you look up the light bulb websites? Were they of any use?
