I've problems with this neighbour before over parking.

She's had a parcel of mine since Wednesday last week and I know she is in but she is refusing to open the door. Wibu if I knocked the door down? It's a present I need to give to someone on Saturday.

Anybody want campfire-cooked cheesecake?

Bloody hell she's got some cheek Shock

chocolatejunkie1 · 25/03/2015 20:16

What a crazy woman!

not place marking really! ;)

EnriqueTheRingBearingLizard · 25/03/2015 20:17

It's a bit mind boggling so far.

If you ask for something well done, where's the line for too well done if it's not burnt?

EnlightenedOwl · 25/03/2015 20:33

Send someone to knock on the door and get your parcel for you

DartmoorDoughnut · 25/03/2015 21:44

Bloody hell she really is the neighbour from hell isn't she! So sorry nanny Sad hope she hands back the parcel sharpish oh and that she moves soon!

Thankyoumrspatterson · 25/03/2015 21:56

Marks place :)

SquareTheCircle · 25/03/2015 21:58

fight weirdness with weirdness. How about paying someone to follow her round all day dressed as an elf, bopping her on the head with a balloon? They could even sing a 'give back the parcel you weird fucker' song.

ihatelego · 25/03/2015 21:58

christ I've spent the last 2 hours reading the previous on this case and am gobsmacked at the new developments! Definitely call on NAR he was the knight in shining armour last time i bet he'd know just what to do!!

Oldraver · 25/03/2015 22:18

I think you need to inform NAR and all your other neighbours, if only to let them know not to let this loon take in any of their parcels

EnlightenedOwl · 25/03/2015 22:28

you need someone to make a bit of a disturbance like kicking a ball near her car or something, to make her run out o f her door and leave it open then you can run in quick and grab your parcel....

MiddleAgedandConfused · 25/03/2015 22:30

Can you (or NARs friend) block her car in again but leave a note saying you will release her car when you have your parcel?

BerylStreep · 25/03/2015 23:06

I think asking her for it again, or putting notes through the door is only playing into her hands.

Contact the retailer and get them to sort it out with the delivery company.

What ever happened with the parking?

PedantMarina · 25/03/2015 23:15

OK, I now hare a little girl-crush on SquareTheCircle Grin

ilovelamp82 · 25/03/2015 23:35

This woman is a nutter.

IHavemyownLighthouseyouknow · 26/03/2015 00:07

OP, you are obviously a very nice person. I would be shouting, singing (trust me, not a good thing) and causing all kinds of merry hell to her by now til she gave the parcel back. Wish you could get NAR involved, he is very Poldarkish in my mind. Grin

Nannyplum2015 · 26/03/2015 07:08

I've got a friend coming over this morning and I've arranged for her to pull up right outside her house and ask for the parcel back before coming over to me. Hopefully that way she'll answer the door at least. Also my friend takes a little less nonsense than me! Grin

I have never known anyone to be as cheeky, I am amazed!

MarkingMyPlace9 · 26/03/2015 07:37

Good Luck NannyPlum!

HellKitty · 26/03/2015 07:47

Place marking!

QOD · 26/03/2015 07:57

Op I hope your friend gets it back but really ... come on! At least do the note. If you don't stiffen your back bone it's going to get worse and worse

Dawndonnaagain · 26/03/2015 08:23

I have work to do this morning, I just know I'm going to keep checking in here to see if friend gets parcel!

Piratespoo · 26/03/2015 08:24

Make sure she is not as nice as you and demands it , not asks!!!!

monkeyfacegrace · 26/03/2015 08:39

Why don't I have a neighbour like this Sad

I LOVE a bit of justified confrontation and I'd be doing all manner of unsociable things to her.

Want to swap homes OP?

And square I literally just laughed out loud at your suggestion (and I never do that!)

SweetPeaSoup · 26/03/2015 08:49

I'm another who thinks that NAR should be warned. Not so that he can intervene, but because this neighbour would presumably do the same to him should anything of his be inadvertently left at her house.
