Parcel Etiquette

Fair enough. If its a penis shaped parcel, and its lying inactive, it obviously needs handling 

So, what happened? This is almost as exciting as the live feed of the pregnant giraffe!

There never was a parcel.

It's all just fantasy.

The parcel is still here. Unopened. I think I may be crossing a line by opening it.

I'll give it a few more days then "return to sender".

If the best fantasy I could come up with was a fictitious parcel I'd retire from football forums.

I've had marriage proposals on here you know!

Who from though?

Cajunboy wrote:Who from though?

A real person. He dumped his girlfriend for me. But I had to turn him down, it wouldn't have worked out.

That's very sad.

I hope you have managed to put it behind you.

Do you know what happened to his girlfriend?

Just had a card through the door from Royal Mail saying,'Unfortunately we can't deliver your parcel because there is a fee to pay'.
It seems the customs have slapped an £11.73 charge on it(£8.00 handling fee).
The package appears to be a DVD. 'Alfred Hitchcock Presents', series one,dispatched from and sold by Amazon.
Never happened before,but I'll just have to cough up. Not happy.

I don't, I had to cut all ties with him after I turned down his marriage proposal.

People I've turned down have a habit of turning into stalkers.

I once bought a CD off Amazon for 1p (plus £1.26 P&P) not realising it was coming from the US. I received a similar charge.

I'd like to know how they decide which parcel to stick a charge on and which one to get through.

They're delivering on Thursday now. I could have collected it at the sorting office,but they wanted proof of ID that was beyond silly.

A cold shower can help get rid of unwanted stalkers.

I'd be interested to know just what Nat looks for in a man. Looks? Money? Personality?

Does he need to have his own hair and teeth?(not that he's likely to have someone else's. That would be absurd).

Does age matter? Does he have to have a high IQ?

Set a bar for us Nat.

I was in the the Italian Orchard at Broughton last week and heard a man at the next table mention your name.

He looked bereft and miserable and I wonder if he was the man in question.

Unfortunately that's how all the men I've dated end up.

It's a curse.

 I saw him later in the evening in the car park trying to start his moped.

Well the one who proposed to Natasha was a Portuguese bloke if I remember correctly.

She once had a date with a bloke called 'Stinky', then later on she became Dave Nugent's WAG.

She was once famously outed as a 'Southern Belle' and later had a fling with Mavis.

Cedric is possibly the bloke on the moped but there might be many more others we don't know about.

She certainly no stay at home girl from Whittam Towers.

A shame Nat's like an old bike now.
