How do you rate an envelope:

Thanks for your time,

They're awesome, we put things in them, seal them and send them to other people who have to open them to remove the contents.
They certainly do what they say on the packet:
NOUN
1A flat paper container with a sealable flap, used to enclose a letter or document.
Cannot fault them in this regard.

100% pissed off and need to vent. I've waited weeks for someone come and fit the new loo.
Had a plumber all lined up for this morning at 09.30. He rang at 09.45 to ask where he could park round here cos of unloading his tools, fair enough, I'd imagine they are heavy. I replied, that the only place I could suggest was Sainsburys, because it's a resident parking area, and unfortunately I don't have a visitors permit to lend to anyone, whether they be family, friend or tradesman.
2 minutes later at 09.47 I got a text saying he was sorry but it was too far to carry his tools and that I'll have to get someone else. I realise a lot will sympathise with him, yes it's awkward parking wise round here.
I'd changed my day off specially for him, and i've cleaned the bloody house specially!
Rant over.

Went for a walk, found a dog, got it to follow me to safety away from the ring road and went searching for owner. Located owner (well lady looking after it), then hung onto my 'find' while the lady went chasing around the estate after the other 2 escapees. Pleased to say all 3 escapees safely back in their home ....and I got to cuddle a lovely little dog for a while

In my area today, according to Facebook, a well known criminal was knocking on doors & casing houses.... He was, infact, trying to find the owner of a lost dog too. Ho-hum.

I'd earlier found some post on the floor that the postie had dropped and delivered that to a house down the road as well . Was hoping it was going to come in threes and I'd find a few notes fluttering along the floor without an owner in sight, but wasn't to be ...

Oh @Glam, I really feel for you. I'm glad son is finally out of his city centre flat as he had similar problems with so many furniture deliveries etc being aborted because the drivers weren't allowed to park on any of the nearby roads. ( Had to get his mates to help move him out and carry everything to cars parked quite a way away , as 'Man with a Van' was very cheerful and happy to quote prices until he heard the address then "Oh......." and that was the last we heard from him! )
