I'm with the blonde lady, I didn't even realise there was a debate about it and thought it was just something you do for your neighbours.

I don't have any neighbours, I'm delighted to report. When I lived in London though, I'd always take stuff in for neighbours and they would for me too.
I have a special hidey-hole that only me, the postman and the Amazon man know about.... so no neighbours needed. |

Of course, im always taking parcels for folk and the other day a man came from the the wee block of elderly flats at the bottom of the road and handed me a camera that had been in his lobby for a few days, he came all the way up the road and gave it to me, no idea why RM left it down their tho.
I would have done the same. |

Yeah, don't know why anyone would have an issue with doing such a small favour for someone.

Nope, they could be really dodgy neighbours and take your parcel for themselves and just say they never got it

In that case the place where it was purchased would track it or deal with it.

I would take it if it's something important. Like, a neighbor who has to receive medical supplies, or an elderly neighbor... I would be annoyed though if it were for anything else and on a regular basis because I work at home. Plus every interruption gets my dogs riled up... they're a good alarm system, but it tends to make my ears bleed
Yeah We've thought about going the way of Tumbleweed when we get closer to retiring... the husband and I can have a little farm, raise chickens... maybe run a small animal rescue... |

You'd have to be an ignorant, miserable arsehole to not do that. It's no hardship.

The women in the video acting like it'd be the burden of her life to have to knock on next door and give them a parcel If you agree with Eamonn you know you're in the wrong.

It would be nice to get a parcel now and then that was not addressed to the TL and wasnt ANOTHER frickin Radley handbag
Yesterday was the orange one that is hard to find and the day before it was the one to fit her A4 filofax, last Friday was the blue one that goes with the shoes she got in M&S.. and so it goes on |

My neighbours stole our new smart tv so we put strict instructions not to leave with neighbours. I'll take their stuff occasionally though unless it's a massive delivery OR I'm going to be out.

We always take them in if the neighbour is out. It's the nicer thing to do.
