Why do people sit in their bloody cars/vans for what seems like hours with their bloody radios blaring out full blast, and why is it always within earshot of the room I work in?


I'm at the point of going downstairs with a brick. A very very large brick.


ETA: Every cloud. I went down (without a brick) and it turned out to be someone in the same road I've never met even though he's lived here nearly as long as I have :)


And he was very apologetic, so all good :)

To balance that, a week or so back a similar thing happened, but in this case the person in the car was switching from station to station every thirty seconds or so and I could hear the noise from the other end of my house.


Funnily enough the car was parked over the road in about the same place as today (different car though).


I was really wound up and I went down and had a rant (no bricks thrown though).


The woman was speechless, but she did turn it off.


Unfortunately when I got back upstairs I looked out of the window to see if she was still in her car, and saw her going into a house opposite.


:( or :)) depending on how you look at it. I never recognise people, so that is potentially extremely embarrassing :))


Guess I won't be getting a Christmas card :))

You're obviously not a woman: at a certain our our tolerance to EVERYTHING completely bloody disappears.

    • Many of the goods available on Amazon aren't dispatched from an Amazon facility but direct from the supplier who use their own couriers which can include the post office. This is indicated in the item's information by the 'fulfilled by' information.  Amazon themselves are certainly still delivering in Dulwich. Don't want to jinx it but I'm finding RM tracked deliveries very reliable. Even DPD messed up one of my deliveries this week but all now resolved.
    • the Post office seems to be the outfit responsible for delivering stuff ordered on Amazon in the Dulwich area Is anyone finding that their parcel delivery has become more unreliable than in the past e.g. not delivered because 'you were not in' or 'returned to sender as address incorrect'?
    • We had such a problem with theft, with couriers denying responsibility and ignoring instructions not to leave things on the doorstep, that we installed a parcel safe.  It works well if people use it, but I am puzzled by the couriers that send me a photo of the packages they leave propped up against the side of the parcel safe.
    • The whole display accidentally went off in  two minutes? 😮🤣
