Weird question but I’ve been dwelling on this for hours and I’m hoping that people who know more can help me. EDIT people seem to think that by this I mean I’m upset or bothered, I’m not! I’m just a bit puzzled and curious!

I’m staying in Birmingham for a few days, and while I was exiting the train station yesterday a total stranger started chanting “Everton” over and over, making direct eye contact with me, as he walked towards me. He stopped when he passed me.

I know so little about football that I had to google and check that it was the name of a club.

Some more information:
- I have brightly coloured hair
- I was wearing a plain white t-shirt and trousers with yellow/green/white stripes
- He didn’t seem malicious or aggressive, he was grinning (like maybe he thought I’d understand a reference?)

Anyone able to shed some light?

Hello, knowledgeable people!

I have a bit of a pickle, which is:

I am prescribed testosterone, which is a controlled substance.

I get my prescription delivered to my home.

It was delivered mostly as usual, only instead of bringing the package to me for my signature and handing it over at the door, the courier left it in the unsecured lobby of my building. I did not authorise unsigned delivery, or delivery to a safe place. They didn’t even ring my buzzer, and I didn’t get the notification of delivery until about an hour after it had been completed.

It’s now missing. I went downstairs to collect it after work (I work from home, and was home at the time the delivery was made, but was not able to step away to collect it) and it’s not there.

I’ve asked my neighbours if they’ve seen it, and nobody has.

I’m reached out to both the dispensing pharmacy and to the courier company for advice on what to do, and am waiting for their responses.

My question is if I need to or should report this to the police? I wouldn’t normally bother for a missing delivery, but as this is a controlled substance I’m not sure if there are any rules I should follow. Is anyone able to advise?
