Ellie explained that she regularly receives deliveries, though drivers usually leave parcels in safer spots, either behind a door or in a bin. This time, however, the delivery driver kept knocking until she answered. Knowing she couldn’t ignore the persistent ring, she grabbed a towel and rushed to the door.
According to Ellie, the driver barely looked up from his phone while handing her the parcels. When he finally glanced up, he burst out laughing, snapped the required delivery photo, and walked away with a grin.
“He saw me soaked, in just a towel, and couldn’t help it,” Ellie recalled in her post. She added that when she checked her delivery confirmation later, she couldn’t stop laughing at the photo that had been uploaded.

Even Evri, the delivery company, joined the conversation, confirming that their couriers follow strict photo policies.
