Delivering packet to neighbours

[dvbuk55]

We had this in WTL this morning and this is why I started the thread .
What about Recorded delivery?
Surely recorded delivery is a record of delivery to the address on the parcel , not next door or the house opposite.
If this was implimented it would get rediculous because people would put notes on their doors saying "Postman can you deliver it to no 6 and if their not in try no 32"
But then after the p/l fiasco dont hold your breath

If going to 32 isnt feasible,then don't do it
For RD,you put a symbol (can't remember if its an ! or *) either side of the name to show it was delivered to a neighbour

Never heard of that before, I was always told RD's had to be signed by a person at the property.
Otherwise if you deliver to another address its not a recorded delivery to the address from the customer.
You can just see it in a few years , you knock on one door and ask them to take the packets for the whole street

Whilst they're delivering the packets they might as well take the mail too - just think, one drop per street/road on a 6 hour delivery..........................one bloke would be able to manage a fair sized town

Then you can scrap the DOs, just have the MC drivers in 7.5 ton trucks dropping off the mail at the end of a street, then one of the residents could be something called a postie, and take the mail to each house, then gradually the number of drops will go down, they'll get a big building in the middle of town, with some vans, call it a DO and just have one drop for the town.....

...reinventing the wheel a bit aren't we?

Perfect!
