the neighbours are watching

Post by GJW »

im sure it's just not me on the forum! so who else gets a heap of r/c parcels each week from the post man? my neighbours are astounded but are afraid to ask me what they all are :wink: . its either australia post, fed ex or dhl showing up it really keeps them guessing, bet they think im a drug dealer/smuggler of some sort!! :lol: next minute i walk out the door with parcels up to my chin with items ive sold on the bay.

who can relate?? 8)

I can definitely relate to that. I am addicted to getting stuff in the mail.
I have everything delivered to work and my workmates are well aware I am addicted to Rc. I even know the courier by name (Graham ) lol
That way my wife doesn't know about all of the Rc stuff either. (until she goes in the shed at least)
