I've got a delivery coming on Mon, 2 hr time slot. It's a big item, has to be signed for, and (so far as I know) they won't deliver it to neighbours not that I get on with my neighbours, but that's another story
I have to be at work on Mon, all day. I can sometimes work from home, but I absolutely can't on Mon as I have to deliver a presentation for a roomful of people. I also work an hour from home, so it's not like I could pop back for it either.
My DC is at college at that time, and I don't really want to encourage them to skip lessons to stay at home.
No family, and all my local friends work, so couldn't help.
The only other person is my OH (we don't live together). He isn't working, so would be at home. But I'd be asking him to drive 25 miles each way (about 45 minutes in traffic) to sit around at my house for a few hours. - and I know he doesn't like being stuck at my house anyway. Is it asking too much? We're not getting on great at the mo, if we were I prob would have asked, but I feel a bit uncomfortable about it. Although maybe I'm being oversensitive?
I don't really want to cancel as what's being delivered is needed to finish a job at home, and it's taken 3 weeks already.
