I've thought about this but my bloody missus has stuck numbers on ours!!
I have a delivery driver, can’t think of the company, but if I’m not in and he sees it’s a clothing delivery (ASOS, Zara packing etc.) just just lobs my parcel over into my backyard. Doesn’t let me know either. Just says “delivered”. Little rat lol
Least you know when someone’s lifted yours though
I’m on bin number 3 this year alone. Absolute thieves on my street. It’s bin day today but I’m not home till 5pm so I didn’t put it out because I know it wouldn’t be there by the time I got home.

Unfortunately not.
I'm sure I've heard this before....I’m quite happy to take anyone’s parcels except our immediate neighbours who are a pair over friendly doogooders with cats they let run wild and crap everywhere. I’ve already had to ‘deal with’ two of them
Only thing I’ll deliver to them is my grass cuttings secretly dumped on their front garden, should see the woman’s gob when she came out and saw it.
Everyone else says they think there dead popular in the street, but we all slag them off behind their backs

My neighbour has recently dug up what was a really decent looking front garden with a big hedge at the front that gave both theirs and ours a bit of cover from the main road, they've concreted over it so they can park their car on the new driveway, it means they got permission for a drop kerb as well. Me and the neighbour the other side of them seem to have come to an unspoken agreement to now park as close to either side of the drop kerb as possible.
I take great delight in knowing that it makes exiting their driveway a little more awkward than it should be and how much it'll be driving the little knobhead next door mad. Don't even care how much of a tit it makes me.

Not a maths teacher thenDoesn't happen often round our way. I'm mid to late 50s (cant remember exactly ... and it prob would have been quicker to work it out than typr this), the female a little younger and we bring the average age of the neighbourhood down to around 80. Ergo most people are at home for their own deliveries.
I built a parcel chute into the garage wall right by the front door, which will take most medium sized boxes. Most delivery folks commentvwhen I see them and ask "why doesn't everybody have them?" I dunno.
Doesn't stop the amazon man leaving stuff on the doorstep for me to stand on though.
So many cats - so few recipes
Least you know when someone’s lifted yours though
Some absolute weirdo nicked mine the week I moved into this house. I say weirdo because she just brazenly had both bins sitting proudly in her front garden. I knocked on and politely pointed out she appears to have 'accidentally' taken my bin in. Nope, her dad works for the council and got her an extra one that day. I wasn't in the mood so just left it, fuming.
A few days later I was walking back home pissed up and spotted a bin outside a house that was for sale and empty. Grabbed it obviously. Then realised I had to drag it through the streets at midnight.
Anyway, I got away with it. And thought it was a great idea to get the little Games workshop paints out at 1am and paint my number on it.
So now I've got a dribbling 13 daubed across my bin in Apothecary White. But no fecker has stolen my bin since.
This is the sort of story I was after. Kudos on the Warhammer paints and living at the same number as me.
Shame we don’t live in the same town or I could rob yours to replace mine when that inevitably gets nicked again.
In my day cats were a shortage, the kids killed them for their tails for Davy Crockett hats lol Joke -
No Neighbourhoods left like the old days when you could leave your doors open as the was sod all to take from them lol
Happy to take in parcels for my neighbours, they're all fairly sound. One is a bit of a loon and the whole street can hear her arguing/brawling with her latest boyfriend (she gwts through them), but they're never nasty to anyone else and most view it as free entertainment.
What is going to cause trouble is parking. There's two families in the street who seem to have about 9 cars between them. They've got driveways and on street parking, but still manage to take up all the spaces along our street.
One neighbour is close to snapping. I'm sure it'll all kick off any day now. Time to stock up on popcorn.
