Widespread procedure is to let them come to you, but with you just handing it over without conversing as soon as you open the door in a "I knew it was you, now f*** off" manner. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should I chap the door and give them it or wait for them to chap my door and ask for it? How much do you know about this neighbour? Did he appear from nowhere and say nice things about Vladimir Putin? Does the package seem surprisingly heavy and warm to the touch? I would be concerned if I was you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might want to rethink that if you/they work nights, however. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not very nice - he was good enough to take your parcel in and even asked on here for the protocol about handing it over. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
