I forgot, I have to say something similar on the third greeting...''Good morning Mr Magpie, how's the wife and kids?''

Nothing for two, but if I'm with someone and I see one Magpie, then I say ''One Magpie seen by two, double good luck to me and you''...apart from Magpies, I'm very rational...honest!

Down four generations, there's only been one girl born on my father's side.


My Great Grandfather had two boys, my Grandfather had two boys, my Dad had two boys, his brother had two boys and the anomoly, my Dad's brother's anomoly had two boys, her younger brother had two boys, her other brother hasn't had kids, my brother has had a boy and i've not had kids.

Unless the stalker had already worked out their quarry's regular route and laid down the feathers accordingly...

    • The problem with delivery people nowadays is that they are on such a restrictive schedule that they literally have to just try to deliver and run, otherwise they are penalised. I understand the frustration though.   And good luck making any kind of complaint to Evri. I once sold a laptop on ebay, took it to the Evri pick-up, where it was processed and it then went 'missing' between their pick-up place and the hub. Went through a long, long process where they offered me a desultory amount in compensation and I had to take them to small claims court before they came up with a fair offer the day before we were due to be in court. Long story short, Evri are shite.   Go to look at this forum for the number of people who have issues: https://nationalconsumerservice.co.uk/forum/183-postal-and-delivery-services/
    • I haven't had a rude EVRI delivery but last week I had an unexpected delivery at 10.42 pm. He didn't ring the bell or knock on the door (or rattle the letter flap) but just took a photo and put the box down.  If it hadnt been for the door camera giving us a beep we would never have known there was a parcel ready to sit there all night.  
    • Sorry if I’m being slow but there’s no point in having a gate then is there?  Would have thought it was basic manners to respect someone’s property 
    • I didn't say wedge it "slightly" open. I meant to wedge it fully open.
