I got so sick of my phone ringing, I switched it off and mailed it to myself

How long do you think it will take to arrive? Genuinely had had enough today. I was sat waiting on the school run parked outside the post office and it was ringing and singing and beeping and it struck me I could just buy an envelope and post it to myself and have a lovely few days where I wouldn’t be lying if I said id lost it. So I did it. Weirdly not regretting it yet.

Why not MrsMotzart ? At least there's plenty of food in there

I’m not sure if it went through the normal post or if the village postie pulled it out and just dropped it in this morning. There’s no post stamp just a big black marker across the stamps?

Although there is always the possibility that village postie was being super efficient, local post usually gets there the next day as it will stay in the same office, as posting and delivery sorting office is the same one.

Go to London and re post it OP. It will take ages to get home from there. Grin

Or post it to me, and I will post it to another Mner and you just shout out when you want it to come home

We could send it round the country, from Mumsnetter to Mumsnetter, until you post to say that you want it back. (Would be cheaper to just post the SIM card around though.)

I think there's laws or something about it Red..., though if there aren't then there should be as otherwise, as LittleMiss says, they'll eat all the ice-cream ShockConfusedSad

Okie dokie Mrs Motzie I'll get a child proof lock for the ice cream

I'm far away, you could mail it here... Grin

maybe for now, though, turn off all notifications and only look at it within say one specific hour you set aside to deal the headaches?

Love the idea of posting it around the country, we could all take a photo with it, something random.

That would probably count as some form of art project.

We can probably get funding or sponsorship for it Smile
