The neighbour should come and get it because you don’t know when they will be back

It should absolutely be on them to come and collect it. The only issue I've encountered with that is sometimes whoever delivered it doesn't leave a note to say it has been delivered and to who. I've been on both sides of that one.
Onus should be on the owner of the parcel. But my neighbours are like yours.
I will only take in small parcels now. Anything larger than a small box I refuse to accept.
If it’s a regular thing I would refuse the parcels from now on. Also yes they should be coming to get it from you
Should be them that come, there has been times I've seen my neighbours coming in an went over if they haven't come to me after 20 mins just to be told thanks they didn't know as there's been no note but it's rare as 99% of the time they know since most are good at leave notes
If I had neighbours who took advantage of me being home an was constantly getting stuff delivered then I would just say no to it, can you see who's at your door? Or see the delivery van coming? I'd just not answer the door to it, there's more than enough drop off places now you can choose to leave parcels at like Amazon an most shops will also have a delivery to store option
My washing machine has just decided to stop spinning - I’ve turned it off for half an hour at the plug, emptied what was in it (towels) and bounced it up and down and it’s still not spinning. Any advice please 
I was at a party last night & my friend's boyfriend kept trying to pressure me to take coke..I kept saying no and then in the end he gummed me when I was laughing. How do I politely tell him he's crossed a boundary with me?
i wouldn’t in any way be trying to be POLITE about that wtaf?! i’d be telling him if he tried that again i would literally bite his hand (hopefully off).
i would tell him that no actually means no and to attempt to have some degree of decency in respecting people’s wishes. head.
Pull the plug out again, leave for 60 seconds and then open and close the door six times in rapid succession. This performs a factory reset. Now try it, and if this hasn't fixed it alas its time for a new one! Good luck!My washing machine has just decided to stop spinning - I’ve turned it off for half an hour at the plug, emptied what was in it (towels) and bounced it up and down and it’s still not spinning.

Honestly like another said, I would in no way be polite, in fact I'd actually be reporting it, but if you still want to be good friends with your friend I'd be letting them know that no means NO, an in future if it's not respected then it might be best to put a end to the friendship, if my friend thought that was acceptable for their bf to do that to others then I really wouldn't want to remain friends
What an absolute a, there's no telling how anyone will react to that, I know it's farfetched to say that it could have made you incredibly ill or even hospitalised you but these things have happend
I just don't want to cause any issues between my friend and I because of his behaviour
what has your friend said about it?
honestly, i think there are some things where it’s impossible to avoid issues. this man basically forced you to intake drugs against your will. you can’t tiptoe around that to avoid upsetting your friend. he had no consideration for you or for your safety, as said above, anything could have happened.
Thank you, I tried it but didn’t work
gutted
Have you tried it empty on a slow spin, or even with a few dry items in just so it's got some weight in it? Mine has a tantrum sometimes if I wash something that makes it become unbalanced when the items are wet - like a dog bed or duvet - I guess a load of just towels might cause the same? Assume you've Googled the model of your washing machine not spinning?My washing machine has just decided to stop spinning - I’ve turned it off for half an hour at the plug, emptied what was in it (towels) and bounced it up and down and it’s still not spinning.

At the time she kept telling him to stop trying to pressure me, and to respect the fact I'd said no. Then when he gummed me she was like "wtf stop it she said no"
Yes I tried everything! But then my partner just came home from work and lifted it up and down a few times and it started to work!
What's happened to you could be classed as assault, essentially a spiking but in plain sight. It's really serious and I hope you're feeling OK. I also hope you're able to find a way to deal with the situation in a way that you feel you have addressed it to an extent you are happy with and that doesn't create an issue with your friend. However, he really needs to have it explained to him that what he did is unacceptable and that it could have had serious consequences.
If I were your friend's shoes, I'd be seriously reassessing my choice of partner. She might be feeling really confused about the situation as well. Could you chat to her about it calmly and openly? Or do you think she'd rather brush it under the carpet straight away?
Yeah I think I might talk to her about it tomorrow, it's not the first time he's crossed boundaries with me unfortunately! But she gets really bad hangovers so won't be in a fit state for a conversation today.
Yeah, definitely better to wait until she's feeling better. It won't be an easy conversation.
I actually feel really angry on your behalf, even though I don't know you. It's just an outrageous thing for him to have done. If it's not the first time he's behaved like that then it sounds like your friend would be better off without him.
It's the first time he's ever essentially drugged me, but he's crossed boundaries in the past by being sexually inappropriate towards me and he's pinned me up against the wall by my throat once.
She loves him so there's not really anything I can say/do with regards to their relationship
