Would be a waste of time.

I had a screecher come after me waving a 739 in my face. I tried to explain it had been left by one of our drivers. She called me a liar because she'd watched ME put it through door ! What can you do ?

Some people are just insane lol !

I put an asterix and VAN on the top of the card.
Thought i'd post the pic before the usual suspects get in on the act. :roll:

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

I have noticed that bar shoving my whole hand through the letter box,most who have the brushes behind them,when posting the card it does not go through properly,so the walker will them put the letters through and push it out.

Posted another pic before the usual suspects get in on the act again. :roll:

Would that not be 'splat splat' :hmmmm


And so not to get the blame of taking the thread completely off topic (a hazelnut in every bite :wink: )
I had someone stop me with a card asking if she could get the packet, only it was another driver :roll: so I don't think the cards really matter, there will always be mistakes made by people because they don't know the workings of RM.

All I can say is that you have some GAUL brother POSTMAN for posting a pic like that one.

Don't worry about it we are all going to be doing the large packets when P & L comes in.
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
