Lazy. Just lazy, as well as penny-pinching. I don't like the idea at all. In terms of goods safety, I'd rather take the time and trouble to have stuff delivered to the Newport Street Post Office. At least there I know I'll get it without some scrote nicking off with it. I can't see a drone ringing my doorbell, and how would I know anything had arrived?

Idea: maybe it could send an email.

Plus - it's just occurred to me - how will it know which door to use? My Mum, rest her soul, preferred the back door owing to the design of our estate, people used it far more frequently, and our posties were well aware of this (mostly). How would a drone know that without AI and a detailed image via Google Earth (possible privacy concerns there. GDPR, anyone?)?
