Now i understand! You're the delivery driver for the local
kebab
joint.

He actually stuffs catalogs thru the letterboxes
that the poms have in their front doors.

Have you guys not invented the letterbox yet?

Corse we have. We're just not stupid enough
to have it in the front door where anyone
can put anything they like inside the house.

Paranoia can be treated.

Taint paranoia, its common sense.

I only get post through our letter box, just like everyone I
know.

What strange things do you get posted?

Stuff I buy on ebay, amazon, aliexpress etc.

Nothing strange about them.

So why are you worried about "anything" being posted through your
letterbox into your house?

I see that the Oz postal service gets a heck of a lot complaints
anyway.

Hardly surprising given the massive volume of stuff they deliver.

My wife's uncle in NSW told us about it.

'Australia Post complaints top 1 million in 2016–17, parcel delivery
a
major concern'

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-04-0...illion/9612942

Still a tiny subset of the parcels delivered.

The only problem I have ever had in much more than half
a century now is one example of where the delivery person
didn’t bother to knock on the door to see if there was anyone
home and just put the card in the letterbox saying that they
couldn’t deliver. I heard the lid on the letterbox being closed,
found the card, rang the post office and complained and had
the manager personally deliver the parcel to me using his car.

I don't have to check a box. The mail is visible on my hall carpet.

I don’t have a hall at the front door and no carpet anywhere.

And not only is the mail visible on yours, so is
anything else anyone else tosses in too. No thanks.


We've never had anything other than mail and the odd local newspaper
posted through our letter box.


Thanks for that completely superfluous proof that you
actually are too stupid to use amazon, ebay, aliexpress etc.


Whoosh!


You never could bull**** your way out of a wet paper bag.

Why would anyone post anything else?


Some want to **** others over, stupid.


Then stop ****ing off the neighbours,


Not even possible with the worst of the loonys, stupid.

I don't have that problem here either.


Obvious lie.

Not sure what your point is there. An outside box invites theft. An
inside box invites flammable stuff being poured inside. Neither would
happen in the UK. Neither helps if you live in a ********. But the
indoor slot means you don't have to remember or bother to check the box.

You keep making the dumbest posts. You think we can't google?

What percentage of people do you believe that's happened to?


If you have the same personality IRL, I'd be surprised if you made it
through life without having your front room filled with liquified dog ****.

Same with another denizen of uk.d-i-y who mentioned that someone
kept setting fire to his wheely bin in his previous house. Comes as no
surprise given what a complete and utter arsehole that clown is.

Easier said than done with the worst of the loonys.

That loony that burnt my mate's house to the ground,
quite literally, wasn’t even an enemy of theirs, in fact
they didn’t know her at all. She somehow got the idea
that their house was infested with demons and torched
it for that reason. Maybe all that took was for them to
be away in Adelaide.

It happens there anyway.

Nope, and neither did that mate of mine whose house burnt to the ground.

I was actually standing on the other side of the road to the house
with two fire engines outside with the fireys running out the hoses.
The fire went from one side of the house inside to the other amazingly
fast, because of the bags of petrol the stupid cow had put in the house.
