This person was being a bit of a penis, right?

Two AIBUs in five minutes. Probably need to wind me neck in...

I got a christmas card this morning, not meant for us. I don't even know how it got to my house; my house number is 37, it had 68 on the envelope. Imagine I live on Dave Street, the envelope had Dave Road on it.

Opened it up without thinking, then saw it addressed to Sheila and Peter. There was a pretty lengthy message in it from Gaynor and Mike, who live in London (I live Midlands) It was quite a nice message and I thought what a shame that Sheila and Peter will miss out on the card! There was a London 'phone number at the bottom so I thought I would do a good deed and let the sender know that their card had not got to the intended recipient". Call went like this:

"Hello?"

Me: "Hello! Sorry to bother you, but am I speaking to Peter?"

Peter: "Yeah"

Me: "Oh good, I recieved a card from you this morning but it was not meant for me, it was sent to someone called Gaynor and Mike. I just wanted to let you know that it has been sent to the wrong address and that you might want to send another one."

Peter:

Merry christmas to you too, bollockchops!

Well I hope that Sheila is more appreciative of your efforts when your DH talks to her.

need to come back and find out how this ends, priceless :D

baubles don't know if you missed my question yesterday or just to ignore it for being irrelevant but was there a postcode on the envelope?
If so, was it yours or not? If not yours, you can look the address up via royal mail website.
cannot wait for the update once your dh has rung tonight

Just realised my "was it yours or not " question sounded aggressive, sorry wasn't meant to

My baby is shaking on my lap I'm laughing so much

Oh pleeeease let your DP ring Sheila!

Who is Janet and Roy?

Criminal offence opening other people's mail .
Never mind , will send next years cards to BCCS c/o
Holloway prison. Merry Christmas.

at the thought of Baubles ending up in Holloway for mistakenly opening someone else's Christmas card!

Only intentionally Flatty.

Come on Mr Cunting, I'm dying to know what you said to Peter Penis. And yes, I meant Flashmob Carding. Not Flashnob Carbing.

And do we know how the SheeTa's are today?

Have auld acquaintances been forgot? Or somink like that.

The flashnob carbing just made me snort tea out of my nose.

....or possibly a someone exposing himself in the bushes,Cornish pasties in every pocket of his grubby raincoat?

I need help, don't I?

You do. You've also completely baffled me.

Mr and Mrs Cunting. I am Disappointed With You. No update, no nuffink.

Oh, it was the combination of flash, knob and carbs.....

you should send Pe-elia a round robin Christmas card this year, and every year until the day you die. Packed with news on getting a new rug for the spare room. And so should we all.

Would have been far less effort to pop it through the door of number 68 (was it?) with a note saying "opened in error, I think this may be yours" than all the faffing about with phonecalls!

I'm picturing the 6 of them on Jeremy Kyle fighting it out.

Sheila sent the card
Baubles tried to do the right thing
Gaynor thought she'd been forgotten.

And then...

bring in PETER to see his part in all of this.

mike is in the audience waiting to have JK come and ask what he thinks....

Yes Bogey that's exactly what she should have done

if there was a number 68 in her road.

Ah, didnt see that. In that case, bung back in a postbox. Still too much effort to ring imo!

smacka

Bogey, be grateful Buppers isn't here.

[slinks off to corner for not reading thread properly emoticon]

Still think it was a bloody stupid thing to do!

And Bogey, the road it was addressed to doesn't exist . No 68 and no road.

Not sure about if YABU OP (and frankly cannot be arsed to read through whole thread even if I am having another fucking burst of insomnia sleepless night) but I seriously love and have snorted out aloud

bollockchops

Another beautie to add to my increasing repetoire of insults. LOVE it.

I also think the round-robin christmas card is a top idea - one decent sized card and not one of those tiny waste of space and paper that we seem to get that's started late Nov, each recipient to add their own witty little ditty, festive of course, then send on again. At Dec 21st, whoever has card has to send back to original sendee. That sendee can read all the inserts whilst quaffing mulled wine.

BOLLOCKCHOPS!
