Over the past few weeks I have been discovering small packets left on my
front lawn or drive, at a rate of one or two a week.

At first I wondered if the contents might be something illicit,
but I later identified them as air-activated disposable hand warmers,
similar to these:

I can't think of any reason that the user(s) needs to dump them in my
garden, but there's nothing so queer as folk. I am on a housing estate,
with no particular characteristics that offer an explanation.

Has anybody else experienced anything like this?

Point on the postie's regular round where the hand warmer runs out?

Cheers

I was wondering that. Makes a change from elastic bands dumped every
where.
