Why does the postman always bring a parcel when you are out or in the shower

buttercup · Post by **buttercup** » Thu Nov 02, 2006 3:18 am

ive just phoned 16 plumbers to refit my bathroom (my partner slipped in the bath & his elbow went right through it) & no-one can do it for 3 months

Oh I know what you mean Buttercup, the postman here can be sooooo unforgiving. Sometimes our postman, (am I really am not joking here,) will either ring the door and actually open the door himself and place the parcel in our porch, or ring the bell, wait literally 2 seconds then just decide that we aren't in, and leave. Very frustrating!! :-5

Ah that's really nice!! I can understand now why you postman does that but we have never even met ours and yet he feels the right to come into our porch, (even if it is to drop off some post or a parcel!)
