How not to deliver a parcel

packet in dustbinYou have got to be kidding me! I’ve been away from home for two days and fortunately returned today. Thursday is the day my refuse is collected and as I have fantastic neighbours they’re always kind enough to put my wheelie bin out at the front of my property ready for emptying – and they have done already today.

Well it’s fortunate that I returned home as otherwise I’d be missing my parcel. I’ve heard of delivery drivers from various companies leaving parcels in dustbins on bin day, but it’s never something that’s happened to me before.

Yes it was raining, but there’s the cat flap for posting parcels through, there’s my neighbours who are always happy to take parcels in, there’s the green house which is just as dry as the dustbin but not nearly as smelly and definitely not as likely to be emptied! Please, if you’re a delivery driver…. don’t use dustbins as a place to deliver a parcel!
