First of all, let me just say that the neighbours to our left are the most unsociable, ignorant, miserable tts on the planet. The sort of people who don't even acknowledge you in the street.

Secondly, I have no problem accepting parcels for other neighbours when they're not in, they do the same for us.

However, this just takes the piss.

My OH has just informed me these s have just had a BBQ delivered. It's massive. Huge. They know they're not going to be in so they've put a note with the courier company to deliver it to ours. They haven't asked beforehand, they've just gone ahead and done this.

I told the OH she was an idiot for accepting it, I'd have told them to fk right off. So right now, it's sat blocking up our drive. fk knows how we're expected to move it because apparently it was delivered on a trolley and weighs a fair bit.

Thirdly, what sort of orders a BBQ during the coldest winter we've had in decades?

Unpack it, and install it in your garden. Invite the neighbours round for a bar-bee, break the ice and all that.

Probably got a good deal on it (with the sales on) - nothing wrong with planning in advance.

Good luck with moving it.

Now that is taking the piss (85kgs that is!), because they'll never move it and have to use their BBQ in your garden! hehe

Love it.

'No, no, Sir. It's not a pallet of bricks, it's a self assembly BBQ. That'll be £400, please'

I'd second the suggestion to remove some key components, I imagine it would be major hassle sorting that out.
