Nice idea, but as I'm disabled I prefer deliveries to my door. Otherwise it's a taxi there and back! -
No photograph taken and no video evidence of anyone approaching or ringing my doorbell all morning. I have made a complaint to EVRI, but just in case anyone has taken in or found some James Wellbeloved Senior dry catfood on their doorstep ... I am at the South Circular/Horniman end of Underhill.

'Trump has not just abandoned Ukraine – he has switched sides, working with Putin to undermine president Zelensky and hand swathes of the country over to Russia. In this situation, it is vital to build support for Ukraine in the UK and across Europe. If you are in or near London, please attend this demonstration tomorrow.'

Or you could fit them with A+B magnetic strips. I have diy secondary glazing for heat insulation rather than noise and fitted them with magnetic A+B strips. Also, if you'd like a less DIY job, on googling I found this kind of business with info on options: https://www.secondarydiyglazing.com/secondary-glazing-systems/

Sharps disposal container delivered to us
IlonaM replied to OutOfFocus's topic in Lost, Found or Stolen
You could try Pharmaxo Healthcare (tel: 01225 302188). Usually they would have a label with addressee though, and they always hand it over so not sure how you have come to have one left outside. They deliver both injection pens and sharps boxes for NHS. Just found a couple of alternative homecare providers who also deliver injections etc.: Healthnet Homecare 0800 083 3060 Sciensus 0333 103 9811 -

Unfortunately no shows and disappearing buyers do happen on the forum as elsewhere. Sometimes life events interrupt plans (accidents, early baby arrivals etc. - both have happened to my buyers in the past!); other times people are just a little too casual. I find that in life event cases the buyer is usually very apologetic and I try to accomodate them. In the other cases I growl inwardly and see if anyone else bites!! I have found that my stress is lowered if I don't give out my address etc until a time and date for collection is made - not always a 100% guarantee, but it helps. As a side note, I'm sorry you were insulted. Personal remarks where we might be missing key information are never kind or helpful and best avoided!
