| | | Postal Strike A strange man came to my door today wearing a strange uniform. It turned out to be a postman who hasn't stepped foot in my street for ages 
Anyhow, the one and only letter which came through my letterbox today was a prescription from my GP which went 'missing' in the post 6 and a half months ago! Just makes me wonder when I'm going to receive the post that I was expecting to get last week....

| | | Re: Postal Strike he he. i know how you feel. i got january's missing wage packet at work today. i mean honestly, there wasn't even a strike in january!! so far though, fingers crossed, most of the stuff that was posted out just before or during the just over strike has got to me, so maybe they learnt from the last one!  i dunno though, the most expensive thing i've ordered despatched, and its still out there somewhere.....

| | | Re: Postal Strike we have around 4 days a week where we have no post, (on a normal non-striking week) and 2 days when we have masses. On checking with neighbours, they, coincidently have the same routine  Obviously having a lie in a few times a week  Horrible when I'm waiting for my photo mag

| | | Re: Postal Strike I have just posted a nice jiffy bag full of Acorns for a certain WABer. I have had to wait this long to be able to post them. They have probably started to sprout inside

| | | Re: Postal Strike Yes, it's been quite annoying to say the least. Delayed, missing mail, still it should all come right in the end.  |
