UPS "Follow My Delivery"
« on: May 21, 2020, 09:43:42 am »
Anyone else seen this, I believe it's new... It gives you a map with a mark for your house and it also shows where the truck is.

I was refreshing the page and seen the truck coming into town, then it was a few short blocks south of me. I heard a loud truck barreling down the road, looked out the window and seen it was UPS. I wanted to run out and stop him  :D  Then I refreshed the page and it now shows him a few blocks north of me... HEY MR. UPS, YOU MISSED MY HOUSE!!  :D :D

Am I losing it? (please don't answer that...)  ;)

And now he's in the next town north of me! I guess I won't see my toys till later, I'm headed outside  :D

Edit, couldn't resist, checked one more time and he is back in town to the west of me... this guy has completely circled me and driven right by my house

Okay, here I am, still stalking the UPS man  :D

It has switched from "In your area" to "almost there". I watched him stop at about 8 houses 3-5 blocks south and then I heard him drive by the house again and he is now north of me. The things I do when it's raining and I'm bored waiting for a package

Life is rough  ;D

Well, I think I may have been the last one on his route in town and probably the only one watching him  :D

He was first in town shortly after 9am and finally made it at 1:05 pm, 5 minutes after expected delivery of 9 to 1.

Will get some better pictures posted, but I am happy now. Not bargains, but two more off the "want list". I do have another EP on the shelf, but not as complete as this one.

I just saw these Nick.

A nice EP and the Doll Ships Engine.

I never saw these on eBay.

Auction purchases?

The tag looks familiar... a Pook & Pook tag?
