Parents (Kettering area) had an Easter card arrived yesterday which was sent first class on 1st April.

But I (Rugby, not far from there) ordered an Amazon voucher 8pm last night and I had it by lunchtime today.

Another day, another disappointment. Still no sign of any of the three things I ordered nor my birthday card from my
mum which she sent 9 days ago. Good old Royal Fail. Thumbs Up Middle Finger

My postie is a pain in the arse, we regularly get letters with our house number but somebody else's road. Rolling Eyes
I wish he'd stop using his milk bottle bottom lens specs.

That is truly annoying. I used to go and hand deliver said fails, but in the end it happened so often the woman in the other house started having a go at ME.

What do you do with the mis-sent mail?

Not just royal mail.

dpd are rushed off their feet.


Our local DPD guy is really happy. Making loads of money as very few business deliveries, pretty much all home deliveries. Everyone is at home waiting for them.
And next to no traffic on the roads. So is doing double the deliveries he normally does in the same time.

As to postie. Yep still working. Van's parked round corner and he marches his way round the houses everyday.

Well my seat cowl turned up yesterday after being ordered on the 19th.
I thought it was a fairly quick turnaround considering it was an Ebay seller, I usually don't expect anything for a week or so.
Mind you, Royal Mail wasn't involved.
MyHerpes gets credit this time.

I ordered some filters in for a job yesterday, DPD say they are going to deliver today, it would seem that most of the mail order couriers are on the ball, Royal mail on the other hand are just going inconsistent .

Nothing like that. Some Burt's Bees Natural All-Weather SPF15 Moisturising Lip Balm for the wife. Apparently she can't get it locally anymore as the health shop is not open so I got her some off of eBay.
