Parcel deliveries forcing neighbour interaction
16-12-13
BRITONS are having to visit neighbours because they have their Amazon stuff.

Across the UK, thousands are having to go next door to collect Christmas packages their neighbours grudgingly accepted from delivery drivers.

Mother-of-two Emma Bradford said: “Since moving in two years ago I studiously avoided all neighbourly contact. Because all neighbours are from hell.

“Then yesterday I saw the rectangular card saying they had signed for my husband’s footballer biography.

“I knocked on the door and after five minutes’ of TB-style coughing a humanoid form was visible through the glass.

“The door opened a crack and a clawed hand emerged holding a small cardboard box with my name on it.

“The house smelled strongly of peanuts and I think I saw a goat moving around in there.”

Roy Hobbs from Swindon said: “After my neighbours signed for my DHL parcel I feel a terrible sense of debt to them.

“I’m going to have to give them a f***ing Christmas card now.”

Some people are like a parcel repository for their neighbours, it's embarrassing really, if you've no intention of being in get a 'return all parcels to office' sticker.

..or alternatively you can ponce off your neighbours goodwill just like Royal Mail are doing.
Personally I'd place a sign with a tariff of charges on my front door for parcel storage. And those ignorant bastards who don't pick up their parcels for days on end ( a few of these on my walk) would pay through the nose.
