Weird Amazon

My Neighbour is away this week so i said i would collect parcels if any came. Amazon turned up then told my Mrs the parcel had to be age verified. I thought you would have to be 18. I had no idea if you were over 70 you could not accept some goods so they took it away.

I had a vistation from a parcel courrier today.

"I have a couple of very heavy parcels for next door" could I accept them?

No ferkin way, as they were for the a hole neighbour.

Delivery driver was really pissed off because he has attempted delivery to them before, and more often that not fails.

They have a 6 to 8 foot high in places fence all around place, and 6 foot high gates accross the drive.

At the gates there is a phone number to call when you call it no one answers.

They also have CCTV cameras pointing along all the boundaries feels like living next door to some kind of drug baron.........

Who needs a signature anyway......

Cannabis grow in there Andy. Just protecting his crop. Should have taken the parcel as it would be a nice set of grow lamps and extract fans

Lack of resourcefulness here; for arsole neighbours go to a fishing shop and buy some hemp seed, or even your local wholefoods hippy shop, chuck it over the fences sit back, for deeper penetration, roll some seed in a bit of clay and fire it fron a catapult,sit back and let nature do its work.

Re: Weird Amazon

There is often the waft of "sweet" smoke comming from there late some evenings, cops dont want to know unless we suspect there is dealing going on.

Personally I think there is something going on over there as there are quite a few visitors coming and going.

We cant cause too much fuss for reasons I cant go into, one day it will all come crashing down, just a matter of time.........

I do like the idea of scattering some seeds though.

Geoff that is nonsense.

Other opinions may be available but this one is always correct.

Re: Weird Amazon

It was Inspector Keith Boots back in 2017. The stolen cocaine was hidden behind his fridge when he was raided. Aged 55 and the value of stolen drugs was 700,000 pounds. Its well documented in the press and the Courts. He was jailed for a very long term at Leeds Crown Court. His son who was reselling the cocaine also got a long sentence.
Google search, Keith Boots

Often the police would like to raid as they are able to get some weed for themselves. One Inspector whose job was to store the seized drugs got caught with a large stash in his house. His Son was then re-selling it to the dealers from whom it was seized. He got a few years inside for it

Wasn't in Bristol, was it Geoff? Back in the '90's, when I used to work at festivals occasionally, one of the crew used to do security for music clubs. Back then, the doormen used to 'regulate' the dealing. Not so much weed, but he used to buy blocks of seized hash from the boys in plain clothes.

Re: Weird Amazon

The best trick is to freeze a lump of dog shit then put it in the letterbox. When they find it unfrozen, they wonder how a dog got in.

Over here, messing with a the mailbox can get you in trouble. If mail is inside you can be charged with a federal offense. Don't ask me how I know.

Lock him up!

Re: Weird Amazon

Going to share Martin

Another trick was to put dog shit into an envelope set fire to it and leave it on someones doorstep, when they come out to stamp out the fire.......

As is becoming apparent

Re: Weird Amazon

I used to paint my live garden snails with red paint. Grandchildren used to love seeing them sunburnt

I can imagine you sitting in the garden pulling legs off spiders in your yoof. Yuk.

Re: Weird Amazon

Den, back then, we discovered that if you pull spiders legs off, they can no longer walk.
As a group, we went around collecting frogs,toads, sloworms, newts. At one point, i brought home a bucket of newts and they got out. I found most of them sitting in the drain outside the house. The bucket of crabs also got out and hid all around the garage. They began to smell after a few days dead.

Mmm, yes - if you pull the wings off a fly does it convert it into a walk?

Re: Weird Amazon

Not if you stamp on it.
