Looking after neighbours suitcase

Sorry but this is madness.

Neighbourly is taking parcels in and watering plants while they're away.

Allowing someone to store things they can store themselves but just don't want to is absolutely batshit.

Why has she packed her cases so early and why can't she keep her own suitcase in her own house?

It's WEIRD!!

And in your LIVING ROOM?!!

DH is right, IMO.

Thank you and that was exactly my reasoning and the point I was making to him. To me, if a neighbour asks for a favour it doesn't matter what it involves just that you try and help and be a neighbour

Me and my husband are still not speaking this morning so I went to collect the cases on my own and as suspected there is a very simple explanation to this as I told my husband several times. My neighbour was burgled once when she was on holiday, she wants to tell the taxi driver she is actually RETURNING home and that she was staying with us, I have agreed that me and my husband (I've not told him yet) will wave her off from our house. She will simple come into our house 10mins or so before the taxi arrives

Pretend you misunderstood and proudly tell her that you worked very hard and managed to find buyers for every single garment (and the cases too!) on Vinted - and does she want you to give her the overall £2.38 profit in cash or transfer it direct to her account?

In terms of fiendishly brilliant plots, such that Sherlock Holmes, Miss Marple and Columbo with their combined brain power could never fathom, this ranks alongside the old one of answering the door every time wearing your coat and clutching your handbag - so that, if it's somebody you want to talk to, you can say that you've only just got home and welcome them in; and if it's somebody you don't want to talk to, you can pretend that you're just on your way out to an urgent appointment and push past them!

"... To me, if a neighbour asks for a favour it doesn't matter what it involves just that you try and help and be a neighbour..."

So if your neighbour asks you to look after 3 suitcases containing heroin you'd be happy to do so because she's your neighbour?

Don't be so stupid...

Your husband is right... and you're an idiot

[edit - why didn't you explain the other rubbbish about her paranoia about going on holiday in the OP?]

Neighbour of ours, friendly known her for about 7 years is off on holiday next week.
We were talking about it over the wall yesterday and informed me she will be taking 3 cases and would it be ok if I keep the suitcases (packed) in my living room until the morning she gets picked up. I said yes of course and didn't ask why. My husband doesn't understand why we need to keep them here. I said don't be silly we are neighbours and it's the right thing to do. That's not unreasonable is it?

That's exactly what a drug smuggling husband killer would say.

@ShakyBake "My neighbour was burgled once when she was on holiday, she wants to tell the taxi driver she is actually RETURNING home and that she was staying with us"

That's a pretty smart idea. But won't the taxi driver realise when he drops her off at the airport or a hotel or whatever?

She intends to instruct the taxi driver to do the entire journey in reverse gear, for verisimilitude.

Do people smuggle drugs out of the country?
