theft of parcels

Lance from Claudelands

If you have a parcel stolen do not assume it was taken by a random doorstep thief. it may have been taken by the courier. I was expecting a small parcel. I checked the tracking to find it had been delivered AND signed for by me. First i had NOT signed for it. I checked the property and no sign of it. Considering the claimed delivery time was 7:20am i do not think it was stolen on a quiet street at that hour by a random person passing. More likely taken by the deceitful driver that signed for it. Thank you Post Haste (delivering on behalf of NZ Couriers) for all the hassle and trying to blame it on me when if they did knock and i did not answer the door the could have left a card to call. they even sent the driver back to threaten me not to complain within minutes of calling them about it.

A gigantic show-stopping bull called Axle, traditional blacksmithing and farriers, and all creatures large and small entertained thousands at the region’s annual A&P show.
