A mum couldn't believe her eyes after a Hermes delivery driver chose to deliver her parcel in a rather unusual way.
Having knocked on and received no answer, most drivers would have simply left the item in a secure location or with a neighbour.
However, in this particular instance, the driver instead opted to try the door, opening it and chucking the parcel inside.
As reported by Teesside Live, the driver snapped a photo of her parcel inside the open door before emailing proof of delivery to the flabbergasted woman, from Hartlepool.
