My mum found a carrier bag of (VERY large) bras on her doorstep (.)(.) Never found out why

The fking FedEx delivery person once left my passport on my front doormate. After I'd paid extra for a service that required a signature upon delivery.

Why can't someone leave a bag full of money at our front door?

SenoraBruja · 06/10/2005 20:56

so your door mate didn't sign?

I must get one of those.

expatinscotland · 06/10/2005 20:57

that would be 'mat'. doormat.

fking lunatic - i was furious when i got home and found it there. luckily it was a nice area, but it was a house and not a flat and he even propped it up against the door instead of laying it flat so you could tell something was there.

when we lived in a posh area in the UK - nappy bag full of dog poo..... pushed through the mail slot - found it on the door mat when I got up to feed dd1 in the middle of the night.....

Had some divy teenages ( suspect they of the dog poo incident) also try to play knock down ginger - but the divs in their haste did not see the huge front floor to ceiling windows we had in our lounge - from my vantage point I could see them 'sneak' up to the front door - saw them through glass panel ring the bell and then watched as they ran across our front garden past aforementioned huge windows Then when they got no response another teenager came to do it and actually glanced at the house to windows where I just waited silently to roar at him and give him what for for waking the baby - never seen a teenager jump so high in all my life... I could nto stop laughing all day.

After a couple of months as a newie in our last village, and not knowing many people, discovered a week after delivering my dd1, a parcel of beautiful knitted goods and no name. I had to be a detective to find out who had left it- which helped to break the ice. (turned out Bernice knitted for everyone ,and added me to the list!)

My lovly neighbour ( a mumsnetter, who has posted on this thread!) who was feeding our cat for us when we were on holiday left a plastic vomit joke thing next to the front door to welcome us home, bless her.

The week I was prescribed AD's I came downstairs one morning and found an envelope through the door containing 300 quid. The next morning there was another envelope with 300 pounds in it. The third morning I checked several times, but nothing came!

I expect that both came from people in our church, but I have absolutely no idea who it was.

LadyCodofCodford · 07/10/2005 11:28

REALLY?

purpleturtle · 07/10/2005 11:29

Yes, really.

Have also found that someone's stuck a hundred pounds in my coat pocket during a church service - have my suspicions on that one, but no proof!

I've just found God.

In the UK I had a sloping drive and no gate. Once found a shaky, homemade porn video (unlabelled - thank God the kids weren't with me when I put it on).

Here, at least once a week, the lovely old man down the road leaves a huge bunch of homegrown roses on my doorstep. Damnshame he is not 40 years younger

mrsmoons · 07/10/2005 12:24

Twice, over a looong period of time, someone has walked down my drive and left a used nappy (in a nappysck) on my back doorstp! If I have an enemy, they've only been moved to 'punish' me twice in 3 years. So why? Why?

mrsmoons · 07/10/2005 12:45

That's killed it

mrsmoons · 07/10/2005 12:45

For several months after we moved in we had an plain unaddressed brown envelope arrive with a weapon magazine/catalogue in it, and another (unaddressed) brown envelope with a porn video catologue in it.

Scary to think the former owners/tenants were policemen/women.

Whizzz · 07/10/2005 23:53

We also live in a house once owned by a traffic cop - who also had a delivery of porn catalogue addressed to him after we'd moved in !

Nice to know we are in safe hands !

A brace of pheasants - and we were on holiday. T

QueenVictoria · 08/10/2005 00:39
