Confused

Me and DH are freaking out a bit. At about 10pm we heard the letterbox go while we were watching TV but didn't immediately check it. We've just got up to head to bed and it's a tiny little ziplock bag (like 50p sized tiny) with white lumpy powder in it Hmm

We're going to have to call 111 in the morning arent we? Really freaked and going to struggle to sleep now!

What the actual fuck Confused

er..i think ..i dont know what you deem incoherant. i never said she owed them anything. ive actually went as far as scroll back n check. im glad its dealt with as op saw fit..i never suggested random door posted drugs was ok.why the hell would i judge op???//-whatever

Frownette · 24/01/2021 05:34

You told her not to be ridiculous.

Your posts are not clear at all. So whose judgement are you on about?

UnityUnited · 24/01/2021 05:40

The Police are no doubt having a field day if dealers are doing business via their bank accounts. Numpties.

JaimieLeeCurtains · 24/01/2021 06:05

The is like the drug version of the 'grammar advice' thread.

FrenchFancie · 24/01/2021 06:08

I wonder if tolerable got a free sample last night as well?

draughtycatflap · 24/01/2021 06:41

If I kept it I’d be worried that I might be followed the next time I drove to Waitrose - involving a car chase that destroyed a roadside fruit stall with flying melons and being forced off the road into a random big stack of boxes by the underpass.

... And the subsequent footchase across a busy junction bringing traffic screeching to a halt and forcing a van to crash through the plate glass window of a bookie's. Don't forget that bit. With exciting background music playing.
AlwaysLatte · 24/01/2021 07:00

I'd call the police, as likely it's illegal!

tolerable · 24/01/2021 07:10

@frownette - i didnt call her ridiculous.i said dont be...like idf said.dont be silly.isnt saying you are silly,it suggests you have a choice,before you get to actually earning the title.dont be twatty-if you cant understand you could just scroll by. ihave difficults speech /words/typing and your highlighting it is probably helpful but i hate being like this so i get to call it twatty.and @frenchfancy -no.i never.this is not drug induced,its sweet you jumped in to bitch tho.thanks.
at draughtycatflap and jamieleecurtains.....thats now less likely than...mistakenly posting incoherant responses or ..saturday nights plans throughthe wrong door....am sure the view should slo mo the length of a manky river about now

[quote UmmWTF]@IthinkIm its a bit crystally yeah[/quote]

Sounds like MDMA. I bet dealers are doing a roaring trade at the moment.

wildraisins · 24/01/2021 07:12

I think you did the right thing to call 101 and get them to pick it up. You don't want that stuff hanging around your house... it's not like it's a missed Amazon package waiting for your neighbours to collect!

It was a small amount so they are not about to start a cartel war over it. Don't worry.

Frownette · 24/01/2021 07:18

Twatty Grin Whereabouts are you from? Genuinely curious as you're using slang, it's getting lost in translation. Not having a dig, it's just hard to understand.

Monkeytapper · 24/01/2021 07:22

What if they post some more tomorrow and the day after that?. But then again they might no already it’s wrong house as they will no doubt have had a call from a disgruntled customer who it was intended for.

.I would put it to one side but also bit a note on the door saying ‘wrong house’.....no one will know what your on about except the dealer.

Maybe they tip have see you about and thought you and OH a needed a cheering up Grin

This is a bit like the food parcel thread where they received some cheese and veg and wasn’t for them but adult version

Mummyoflittledragon · 24/01/2021 07:29

@TiersForFears1

Only phone 111 if you intend to use the powder.
This thread is brilliant. Gold!

Idk op, do you need to phone 111?

On a serious note, I’ve heard Coke is rife where I live, a naice, middle class area.

Theo1756 · 24/01/2021 07:34

I would consider a cctv or ring system for peace of mind

ShirleyPhallus · 24/01/2021 07:38

Oh god this thread is premium mumsnet. Lots of terrible advice, pearl clutching, sweeping accusations about all sorts of people. Excellent.

Is anyone else waiting for the thread “My drugs were delivered to my neighbour and they haven't brought the package round, AIBU to knock on their door after 9pm to get them” Grin

@ShirleyPhallus, amongst my favourites on this thread is the suggestion that 'older' people can't be ordering up a few lines of coke as they won't have the 'tech' to do that. As in, a mobile phone.

The biggest coke-head in my street is retired. With secure broadband.

I think the problem is that we’re not sure which posts you’re replying to as you’re not quoting them, so it gets muddled up.

glassecase · 24/01/2021 07:56

@BananaPop2020

This should definitely be a case for contacting the Police. This might be a key part in any number of different things. I understand why people don’t want to have trouble on their doorstep, but is pretty sad the amount of posters who are prepared to turn a blind eye to this sort of behaviour.
'This sort of behaviour'?

It's a bit of drugs. Much like the alcohol so many happily chug down

Confusedandshaken · 24/01/2021 07:58

A friend of mine is doing an online cookery class for a few mates tomorrow. One of the harder to get ingredients is coconut milk powder. One person has bought a big bag of it online and her DH was dropping little bags of it at various homes on his way back from work last night. Are you SURE it's an illegal substance and not a misdelivered korma ingredient?

It would be absolutley perfect if this was true. What part of the country are you in, we need to know if it's a possibility Grin
Perpetualheadache · 24/01/2021 08:05

Omg. I'm fully hoping it's the coconut milk powder scenario.
