Is this wierd? Opinions needed please. Just had hand delivered to our house a parcel addressed to Katy, then our address. Inside was a card which had a large red heart on it which said inside "To Katy, WOW!" then there was a parcel from Ann Summers inside was a gift wrapped large dildo in the shape of a large penis. Slightly wierded out by this as we have lived here for 9 years plus it was hand delivered but we didn't see who posted it.

My name is Kathryn, but no-one who knows me calls me Katy. Not sure what to think really but just feels a bit odd.

The OP would have already taken a piccy if it's on fb jingle?

Viviennemary · 22/12/2012 18:14

I would also ring the police. I think it might be a crime to send offensive material like this to somebody who had not ordered it themselves.

CaliforniaSucksSnowballs · 22/12/2012 18:15

Was there an invoice in the box, maybe you can contact the company and ask who ordered it?

KeemaNaanAndCurryOn · 22/12/2012 18:20

Thats massively creepy. Ergh.

AgentZigzag · 22/12/2012 18:21

Because of its shape it can't be anything but sexually explicit.

Sending someone sexually explicit photographs would be harassment, but there'd have to be more than one instance of it wouldn't there?

whomovedmychocolate · 22/12/2012 18:24

Don't throw it away, keep it as evidence. If someone sends you rubber legs on Monday and on Tuesday you receive a nose, call the rozzers! Grin

SomeTiggyPudding · 22/12/2012 18:25

Keep a dildo diary. Log anything that happens.

I'd contact the police. Assuming the sex toy was bought with a card recently at your local Ann Summers, the police might be able to trace the buyer if they feel it's necessary.

Hi all. Not ignoring you but have to get ready for school reunion tonight. It was a brand new vibrator in the shape of a large white penis, gift wrapped at Ann Summers then in the Ann Summers bag. There is an AS at the Trafford Centre which is local to us. All really odd.

Someone called Katy met a guy, then realized he was a creep so gave him a false last name. He googled it and came up with you so delivered a gift to show his creepiness true love?

Do you have a last name like Brown that there could be more than one K Brown in the area?

HazeltheMcWitch · 22/12/2012 18:27

were you Katy at school? It could be something jokey related to the reunion perhaps?

BOFingSanta · 22/12/2012 18:33

I'd keep it and report it to the police to be on the safe side. How bizarre.

kittyandthegoldenfontanelles · 22/12/2012 18:34

Whose hand hand-delivered it?

AgentZigzag · 22/12/2012 18:35

'were you Katy at school? It could be something jokey related to the reunion perhaps?'

That could sound plausible.

vintagewarrior · 22/12/2012 18:37

Really? Why does it have to be creepy? maybe hand delivered to the wrong address in error. Do you have any neighbours called Katy?
If you order at an Ann Summers party, the local rep may hand deliver?

No, don't think so but will take it along and ask. My surname is so unusual that there is only one other person in the world with my entire name and I was surprised to find her in America on facebook!

Eek, that is creepy

LeeCoakley · 22/12/2012 18:40

Did it have your postcode? If not, I bet someone's just got the wrong town. I wouldn't have binned it - I expect they'll sheepishly knock and ask for it back!

aleene · 22/12/2012 18:48

You are going to take it along to your school reunion?? Well, it would be a talking point I guess Hmm

It's only a little reunion, close friends about 10 of us, all home for Christmas and many live abroad now so only chance we get to meet up. It's in the bin and hubby has calmed me down a bit - if we get anything else wierd then we will start to worry!

Who hand delivered it?

No idea, it was there when we got back from shopping today. On our driveway, by the bins.

Well... if the cap fits....

(Apologies in advance if offence caused)

DoctorAnge · 22/12/2012 19:05

That is extremely creepy

TheMonster · 22/12/2012 19:29

The Anne summers party rep thing sounds plausible. I reckon it is that.
