Just interested to know what's normal/average.
So, your average Friday in June...
So far today, at least 15 for me. Haven't kept a strict count.

Errr... None! Maybe 1 on average for a delivery driver. But we don't have a bell.

Zero. We might have had one or two knocks at the door if there were deliveries, but no deliveries today, so no-one at the door.

I can't imagine having to answer the door 15 times in one day, unless we were hosting a huge gathering (which we never do).

MsVestibule · 18/06/2021 19:21

None. Why have you had to answer the door 15 times Confused???

dudsville · 18/06/2021 19:23

None. Are you a niche retailer?

MiloAndEddie · 18/06/2021 19:24

2 I think. How have you had time to sit down in between running to the door 15 times?!

Underbox · 18/06/2021 19:27

None.
Are you a drug dealer 😳

Not necessarily in the right order, but...

  • delivery for next door
  • delivery for next door the other side
  • pick up first delivery
  • pick up second delivery
  • postman for us
  • OH's friend
  • Octopus Energy
  • child's friend
  • child's 2nd friend
  • child's 3rd friend
  • my child 🤦‍♀️
  • parents of a child looking for them
  • neighbour wanting to borrow something

So, 13 so far. Feels like a lot more though.

Not one person has knocked on my door this week.

fingersdoublecrossed · 18/06/2021 19:29

I'm getting so frustrated with it. The dog goes mental every time. I thought I was being unreasonable but maybe I'm not. It's my day off work!!!

Maybe 4/5!
We take lots of deliveries for neighbours as my husband works from home and doesn’t mind it.

Our door bell has rung once this week and that was a delivery for someone else.
