I still get excited when the post arrives. God knows what I think will come through the door but I'm ever hopeful of some excitement.

Our post today was a subscription reminder for Which. Confused

Anyone anything better?

@pinkdays where are you that it isn't a bank holiday today?

Not in UK so this post has been a bit meaningless obviously Blush

No post today, I think we're scheduled for a delivery, maybe, in June or July. 🙄

Nothing here either as BH Monday but have recently received orthopaedic sandals (glamorous but sadly too narrow), foundation & cream blusher from a company that kept popping up on Facebook & some lemon meringue blondies which are some of the best cakes I have ever eaten! Can’t wait to get more from the Farmers Market without postage!

How come OP and others are getting post on a bank holiday?

Boomer55 · 06/05/2024 16:32

Nothing. Its bank holiday.

welshycake · 06/05/2024 16:32

No post but I had an amazon delivery of some pva glue

Sorry for that rogue apostrophe, autocorrect

Davros · 06/05/2024 16:30

No post but from Amazon I got

  • massive box of bird food coconut halves
  • Alexa diddy, or whatever it's called, so I don't have to leave my phone on all night to listen to audiobooks
  • cheerleading Pom Pom's for DS who is autistic and likes to fiddle with them

For those asking about the t shirt. I googled the phrase and this Twitter account came up.

I think it's some type of feminist merch but I didn't dig much further.

Not from the postman, but the coastguard shoved a postcard through the letter box to say thank you for the bag of clothes we'd left out for their charity collection.

LadyMacbethWasMisunderstood · 06/05/2024 14:54

No post here today but we had a delivery of rabbit bedding and a some “catering” style glass tumblers as ours break if we even look at them.

BobbyBiscuits · 06/05/2024 14:52

None as bank holiday. Last post we got was a birthday card for my mum, and a massive bill, also for my mum. I never get anything now. Used to get loads of junk mail but that seems to have dropped off. Got a shower cleaning squeegee the other day. Gripping stuff! Lol

IncognitoUsername · 06/05/2024 14:45

Someone please explain the gerbil t shirt!

HopeOneOfThosePeopleIsAMonkeyBecauseThisIsBanana · 06/05/2024 14:41

Amazon brought me protein powder, spirulina, gardening gloves, woodlice killer (our house seems to have an infestation!) and a bag of minstrels.

What on earth is is the message on the t shirt about?
I’m glad someone else is as clueless as me!

Nellieinthebarn · 06/05/2024 14:40

No post, bank holiday here too, but my new orange bum bag is due to be delivered soon. I got it in preparation of summer dog walks, so no coat pockets to put treats and poo bags in. And I decided on orange so I can find it easily, it works really well with my lipstick red handbag.

I got a t shirt.

My OH got a new phone as his smashed and he is now muttering about WhatsApp updating and all that nonsense.

Icannoteven · 06/05/2024 14:34

2 kids skipping ropes, a ten pack of moth traps, a drip coffee set and a reminder letter from specsavers. We didn’t get any of our neighbours post today, which is unusual. I’m starting to think the postie needs his eyes checked.

MinervaMcGonagallsCat · 06/05/2024 14:33

Bank holiday so nothing

sophi1995 · 06/05/2024 14:28

No post due to bank holiday but I have a lot of stuff coming tomorrow. Just moved to a new house so I have furniture deliveries from Wayfair and IKEA and have a few bits coming from Amazon too.

NeedthatFridayfeeling · 06/05/2024 14:26

Amazon are bringing me a sunhat. No post as it's a bank holiday. Hoping tomorrow's post brings my new base coat and nail wraps Grin

IncognitoUsername · 06/05/2024 14:24

No post but Amazon bought another huge box of tat. DH’s 60th in the week. He doesn’t want a fuss so I’ve ordered banners to go down the front of the house, balloons etc etc. Am having a day off to do up the house. He will be pkeased, honestly!

Bank Holiday here, so no post. But tomorrow I am getting an Andy Warhol cat bag, glitter body paint, a picnic set and some solar-powered lights. Random selection but will feel like Christmas has come early!

UtterlyOtterly · 06/05/2024 13:35

Bank Holiday, no post today but some bits I'd ordered for a craft project came on Saturday.

My best friend from school and I regularly exchange short letters and postcards. Recently she sent me a book she thought I'd like. We have other ways of being in touch, of course, but in our mid 60s still recognise the pleasure of a handwritten message.
