Is neighbour being cheeky?

I'm constantly constantly taking deliveries for next door. Don't really mind, I'm usually home but have a little baby and does get annoying.

Anyway this morning I've had 3 separate deliveries. Last one really annoyed me as I'm trying to settle baby, wouldn't of answer the door but they say me in the window. It's a big massive desk this time.

Anyway said to the driver I'll take it but mentioned I'm fed up of it and this is the last one I'm taking. Driver pointed over to neighbours door and said there's a note on it saying 'leave any parcels with number 17'

And she's been home since and not bothered to come and collect them, she will wait for my husband to bring them round to her.

I know it's not first world issues but I'm no longer answering the door. I've never minded taking her parcels but to write a note on the door I think is a bit cheeky. Do you agree?

* SPOILER ALERT *

Sorry but In my head this has turned into a novel... Sorry it's not what you want to hear but.... CF next door is having an affair with DH. DH is the one that orders the parcels and puts the delivery request in the delivery instructions. She puts the sign on her door. When he "Takes the parcels round......" it's an excuse. Mum & Dad bought her the house so she could be near him because she's entitled as fk. But OP, now aware of the betrayal, turns CFs life into a nightmare.........

Oooh next biggest psychological thriller bestseller.

What the heck is "rustic" furniture?
I'm imagining chairs made from hunks of wood that leave splinters in your bum

I've just finished writing cards and wrapping chocs and wine for both side neighbours and opposite as they've all been absolutely wonderful about parcel accepting all year long!

This is the first relation I have ever be in, so I am going to be honest, I don't really know what's normal or not when it comes to dating single dads. I am 19 and he is 36. I just wanted to help him, but now I feel like he's just using me.
