to put a poo sample through the letterbox of my GP surgery...

Okay so I wont bore you with the details of why it is there is a poo sample to begin with, but was at the GP today, told to provide a poo sample, given a lovely little sample pot, and outer plastic bag thingy with sticky fastener.

So anyway...an opportunity presented itself to provide a sample so a sample was lovingly prepared and placed in said sample pot and placed in plastic bag.

Drove to the GP's surgery and they were CLOSED!!! (I suspect in retrospect they might close for lunch?)

So I put it through the letterbox, thus depriving myself of the opportunity to sidle up to reception apologetcally wearing large sunglasses, discretely hand the sample to the least princessy looking receptionist and charge out of there ASAP.

Is this "wrong"? There was no chance of it exploding or anything, and indeed it didn't, it just dropped onto the mat about half a meter and sat there winking at me saying "I'm a poo sample!"

Will the GP surgery staff come back from their lunch break to be greeted by my sample and be grossed out, or do they get this every day? Blush Confused

It's fine.

My GP's receptionist laughs at me for gift-wrapping my wee samples in tissue paper before handing them over to her.

Ooh.

I bet they are nice and warm though Grin

Bit gross, but fine to do I am sure. And far less embarrassing than handing it over, I might remember that if I ever have to do one.

As long as it's in the sample pot and bag YANBU

Sorry but this thread has really made me laugh out loud! I think it's fine, OP.
