I heard the flap on the door,first thought was no batts today,only a letter.
Wrong!! Red card.I swear he didn't knock.
Had an agreement with our old postie,just leave it and sign.
There isn't two days anymore we get the same bloke.
They'd probably say they are over worked and in a panic to finish the round. Pfft!!
That's really annoying - We've had the same postman for years now, and at first we got the post by 10.30, then it got to lunch time, and now it's crept to 2.30 or even later some days. Really screws the afternoon up if you aren't sure whether something will arrive or not.
It's obvious that his round has grown, and last year, he was off for around 6 weeks with exhaustion ..his wife is a post lady and she was delivering his round with another postman, and said she was amazed that he'd been getting it all done himself, but admitted that some days he worked far longer than expected.
Perhaps he's also trying not to overdo it now.
But, he's been on holiday the past two weeks, and post is arriving at 10.30! We think the postmen are doing this round before doing their usual one, and sharing it because we've had quite a few different ones.
Yes it had that sticker didn't notice it at first
Just had a E-mail from FT the iStick 100 is on its way.Feels like all my Christmases are rolled into one
Wonder what that sticker is supposed to mean! It's obviously a statement of some sort ...a warning for future purchases? who knows.
I got a despatch email for my 100W iStick too today
But still no dratted 40WTC one delivered
I'm really getting to wonder, if when they see something that will not fit through a letter box, they just don't bother putting it in the trolley/bag/whatever and just write a red card out, so that they have nothing to take back at the end of their round.
Perhaps if they had an idea which houses would be occupied, they'd be tempted to do that, but what if you were home and opened the door!
Funnily enough, we had a post delivery last week of stuff that would fit in the post box, and the temporary postman saw me look out of the window when the dogs started barking ....around 10 minutes later, he came back with a bigger package saying he'd forgotten to pick it up when he packed his bag from the van!
