Fed up with the amount of parcels we take in for our DNeighbour

Our DNeighbour is a lovely lady but it’s almost daily now that we have to take parcels in for her. She works full time in an office so isn’t in for most of them.

I didn’t mind at first but she then has to come round to get them and this is often when we are giving our DC their dinner.

YABU - just suck it up as it’s not that big a deal
YANBU - it’s excessive so have a word with the DNeighbour

Just stop taking parcels for her. I don't mind taking the odd parcel for a neighbour but she is taking the piss!

Tell her a time to collect her parcels. Don't come between x and y or after z.

If you would be OK with taking them if it wasnt for her timing to collect them that should read

My neighbour did this so I told him I could not longer take parcels in on a regular basis. I don’t mind the occasional one but it was getting to be an annoyance.

Yeah I didn't even read about the parcels I couldn't get past DNeighbour why are you putting a D you're not even shortening it you're making it longer!

Oops, I thought that was the done thing on here! I saw someone post about a ‘D’cat recently

My neighbour is like this but he's calmed down a bit with the online shopping. There was a point where his ex girlfriend, who did not live there and we didn't know her or her name, started getting parcels delivered to our house and we were refusing them (because we had no idea who she was or why they were coming directly to us!). She kept rearranging the courier to come back to our house the next day. I think that particular period of time made him realise we'd had enough. People just don't think!

Could you not tell DPostie or DAmazon delivery agent that you won't accept them?
