A very much not-on-time parcel, very much not in my porch.
Ah, Evri, the company for whom 'parcel was left on an outside porch' means 'parcel was dumped, four days late, on an allotment 100m from your house'. Satan's very own delivery company.
The local Evri bloke who knows where our house is must be off for some winter sun right now as current delivery is 2 days late with customer-blaming excuses like this one. Grrrrr.
I was doing exactly the same thing as you and standing about 4 feet away by the looks of the camera angle!

Aha my employer just rented office space there. The evening I locked up and walked 10 yards across the first floor landing to see Public Service Broadcasting supported by the BBC Radiophonic Workshop was a highlight of our tenure!
I used to walk to work at Epic from the railway station and I went from Europe’s greatest density of medieval churches to Europe’s greatest density of pound shops
‘What kind of updates?’ I wonder
Who doesn’t like a good music mash-up?
Well, I have for you possibly the greatest mash up ever mashed.
WARNING: you will get obsessed by this and listen to it lots (or at least, I did!)

Oh this is marvellous! I enormously recommend the earlier Girl Talk albums for more beautifully tooled mashups, like this one youtu.be/DZu_lLGFDtM?...

Just imagine what must be in the Epstein files to make it worth invading Venezuela, threatening a NATO ally and having your private army shoot civilians in the face just to distract attention from them.
There's another of these 'I went analogue' pieces in the Guardian today and in the accompanying photo, the journo is holding a CD Walkman

I've been trying for 2 weeks to get a historical statement; a complaints letter of epic proportions is brewing in my mind. I've just retired from a 30 year career in customer self-service and 'Cora' is the worst thing I've ever encountered.
I see Apple has straight up nicked Reebok's "Belly's gonna get ya" ad from 25 years back, and made it less good
A biblical-sounding excerpt from the Beeb's match report of Wrexham vs Forest: "And keeper Arthur Okonkwo proved the home side's hero as he denied Jesus"

I remember being astonished when the 'new' library (by which I mean 1988, but then that's only about 20 years ago, surely, right?) was demolished!
You beat me to posting this! (I come from a Cardiff cinema family in fact - my grandfather and great uncle owned the Splott Cinema Company; their big one was the Gaiety on City Road)
I spent 2 days of my three decade career in telecomms effectively being a comedy script writer for a huge phone manufacturer (Britishing up all the sassy, smartarse replies in the US version of an early Siri-alike)
And to you SWM!
Thank you for this Mark! Have saved your playlist on Spotify! I am very out of touch so this will be an enjoyable listen
Hopefully the other months will do that as well

As this is from Evri, one of Britain's most terrible companies, this is the online parcel delivery version of 'We've got your kids'
