Apologies for late reply - 'a life' got in the way.

You should get one!

Oh, the pub was excellent - thanks for asking. Black Rat cider is to be recommended.
Just out of interest how many posts are acceptable to you before you start being all weird?

Road captains out tonight, policing the merge points from 200 yards back. One got so far over to the right to block people merging that I went round him on the left. He was not pleased. wink

I can only assume this is internet bravado and you're not actually the tool you work so hard to present as. No one is taking the piss out of you for being retired early. You are having the piss taken out of you because in mentioning it (and the weird thigh thing - fk knows why you felt that was needed) you sound like a stroker. Separately, for someone who is so carefree and chilled you exert a vast amount of effort describing all the 'knobs' you've encountered every day. I suppose you must get bored having nothing to do.
Apparently he is also registered disabled! Makes you wonder in what way - I mean, with all his muscles and sexual prowess it's hard to imagine it's a physical disability.......especially coupled with his sleuthing every number plate he comes across. Leads me to think he's probably got some mental health issues.
what the hell are you 2 on??

why not drop it and stop coming across as the people in the title of the thread??

I'm chilled.....and bored of reading 2 (i assume) grown men picking on another grown man because of their opinion, age, social standing, job history, employment status etc etc all because he has an opinion and puts some efforts into his posts on a thread where he accurately meets the topic title...

Remembering and then dragging up posts from days/weeks/months back is proper trolling/stalking and it makes pretty dull reading and you are giving readers the opportunity to highlight your own actions within this topic.

I'm actually laughing at the vision you are creating... of you PMing each other to plan your next witty retort then giggling to yourselves when it gets a reply wink

maybe just get a room and enjoy and leave the guy alone

Nobody is PMing anyone as far as I know - sorry to ruin your amusing "vision" (which I haven't created, it's in your mind)

Two things:

  • 'Planners' who think it is a good idea to build out bus stops into the carriageway, to bring about designer congestion.
  • 'Drivers' who are seemingly incapable of attempting to pass designer obstructions, even when an opportunity may present itself.

More careless road signage - or another Council entrapment attempt.

Inappropriate 'Keep Left' leading through a 'No Entry'

A bit tight to OT the bus methinks. Give way to oncoming if the obstruction is on your side? ding dong.

No, more like Delightful Parcel Delivery.
When you speak to them tomorrow, ask for the driver's name and inform them you'll be contacting the Police to report the theft. If the tracking is showing it as signed for and delivered, that is very different to it getting lost in the system. The way you have described watching the live tracking would very much suggests that it's the driver who's had it away. DPD and Interlink have cameras in their handheld scanners now and he should have taken a photo of the door of the property he delivered it to and/or have the signature of the neighbour.
Ask that this information be relayed to the local depot manager and that you'll be happy to hold off speaking to the Police until you've spoken to him/her about this matter. I'd also liaise with the company who sent the item out to you and inform them what's going on and what you think of their choice of courier.
I used to work for a company that sold high value vehicle parts online and we used to have this game on a regular basis. The amount of thieving delivery drivers was ridiculous.
So this has finally been resolved. Called DPD on Thursday, all ready to go nuclear on them but the guy must have seen this coming as he apologised profusely and said if it doesn't get fixed today, then report it to the original sender so they can investigate and report it to 101 if I felt necessary. Anyway once again the driver failed to return to redeliver the item so I contacted the original sender (John Lewis).

Next day JL call me to say they've received the delivery information and it appears the courier delivered it to the next street along; right enough I checked with #3 on that road and there was my AV equipment, waiting for me. JL refunded the 'next day delivery' charge and also sent me a £50 gift voucher - all without me pressing for it. So pretty happy now that I have everything!

Would not be happy at all.
I have complained to a smaller seller before and advised them not to use a useless delivery firm who messed me about royally. They were honest and said that if 99% of stuff gets delivered ok, they are willing to live with the 1% of hassle.
Which makes business sense if it saves them money.
And the customer is doing all the leg work. Literally in your case.

Yea this was the worst courier experience I've had in quite a few years, actually since stuff went missing last time someone used DPD; but I have everything now so all's well that ends well etc etc.

Incidentally, I've just ordered some small washing machine replacement parts and I got the delivery info this morning - guess who!! Was straight onto their website to have them delivered to a local shop so I can collect them with no hassle (fingers crossed).
