I like the new Spec Savers add we have here! It's about a delivery driver having to deliver a large object like a mattress to the top floor of a large block of flats. The lift is not working and so he carries it all the way to the top . He rings the door bell and the occupant tells him it's the wrong address and points to another block of flats opposite ! :laugh:
good news - will post an update
 
I am fortunate to have good neighbours as they sometimes get my post which they always deliver to me. There is also confusion caused by a faulty address generating system where my parcels get delivered to a house several hundred yards away. I also sometimes get their parcels. Most of those in our local post office are incomers who know nothing and no idea who lives where.
good news I will post an update
 
Amazon says they delivered our cat food, which we can not find in any local stores. they even showed a photo of front steps that look like ours but it's not ours. it's a neighbor's. we live in a condo & all front steps look the same. I checked the neighbors' front steps, no luck. who keeps cat food that wasn't sent to them? especially when it has my name on the label? wrote to Amazon, their automated attendant wrote back: "oops looks like it was marked delivered prematurely, wait until tomorrow" there was no way to send a message : "it WAS DELIVERED to my neighbor but it's not on their steps anymore & they didn't give it to us" HAPPY MONDAY!
oh the irony. looked at the delivery photo again & determined which neighbor might have it. I left a note on the door. one of their cars has been missing for a cpl days so Wifey & I deduced they may be away & having a cat sitter visit daily, who may have taken it in w/o looking at the label

sure enough, after reading my note, this morning, she brought it to me as I was stepping out. & explained (w/o an actual apology, but she was cute so, OK) opened it immediately & gave it to our cat, who hasn't been eating much of anything lately (because we ran out of his favorite food) & he started eating it. YAY! a happy Monday indeed!

of course trying to update Amazon is torture

Hot baked rolls, dripping with butter and peppered steak with soup. It’s time for dinner.
