But where does it cover standing in a queue in the post office for half an hour or more just to post a bloody parcel. Like I had to do today. And yesterday.

Does the episodes include posting peoples letters etc. to the WRONG house day in day out?! I regularly have to drop off my neighbours mail to them and the neighbours to another house (so on and so forth), who knows where mine has been posted to... :angst:
Postman Pat drops parcels from his gyrocopter... into a local lake and covers it up by claiming to have made a successful delivery.
considering the comments above, there must not be one person who actually likes the postman/woman :)
my postman is epic (actually he's Eric... but epic is close enough :laugh:)Quote:

he really is a top notch guy, couldn't fault him one bit :D
My postman/woman is fine, but Royal Mail itself - don't get me started. :censored:Quote:

Neither is the strange move from 7:30am mail to 11:30am mail.
"It doesn't really have the post office in it anymore"
Yeah...that would be because they all keep closing then :rolleyes:
Postman Pat, Postman Pat, Postman Pat and his black and white cravat. Damn he's gone up market! Where is poor old Jess?
To be honest, I have no real problem with individual post-persons, mine or anyone elses, but the Royal Mail as a company is a huge pile of arse there days.Quote:

Got some new headphones delivered today.....................at 7.30am!!! Now why the hell can't the normal post be delivered at this time?
Newbury - sh!t Post Office and there's certainly at least one thief in the sorting office, deliveries occur maybe 3 times a week round my way...........if you're lucky.
No I do not like my Postman nor my local Post Office.
Post used to be good when I lived in Bishopston.
Now I'm in Clifton, 2 minutes walk from the delivery office, we get post when they feel like it, and get post for lots of other houses too.
How the fook does he afford a helicopter?
Our usual postman (Dave) is a top fella. I've noticed - though I probably couldn't prove it - that mail seems to be posted only when it's a certain level. We have no mail for a day or two and then, suddenly, quite a bit avalanches through the letterbox.
This didn't seem to happen in the past and I could be being paranoid. (Who said that?)
By hiking the postal prices and in return giving us an abysmal service?Quote:
