Template:Notice delivery capsule

The Cambridge Dictionary says that to “deliver” is “to take goods, letters, parcels, etc. to people's houses or places of work:” Merriam Webster says it means “to take and hand over to or leave for another”. The Collins Dictionary of British English, in a rather modishly modern English format, tells us “If you deliver something somewhere, you take it there.” A bit more challengingly, the Lexico Oxford Dictionary says it means “Bring and hand over (a letter, parcel, or goods) to the proper recipient or address”.The point to note here is that a representative of the recipient does not need to be there to receive the notice; just that the sender takes it to the appointed place. It is no good refusing to answer the door, hiding behind the sofa or blocking up your letter box with Araldite. If the sender’s agent brings a notice to your designated address, even by regular post, the sender has “delivered” it.
