Mail delivery at 5.30pm is just not acceptable

THE Post Office has announced changes to improve service and delivery, etc.

These will not affect you directly, you should receive services as normal.

Yes, well we have a new postman who it seems starts his route in the opposite direction to the way it's been done in the 12 years I have been here.

The consequence of this is that instead of postal delivery by the latest midday, I now see post arriving at 5.30pm.

Too late for birthdays and too late to pay demands (if any) for bills.

Also noted that despite the released news that the Royal Mail can leave parcels, etc, next door, now this does not seem to be the case.

Despite my daughter leaving a notice to put any big items through the nearby window she has received a card saying she has to go all the way to Plymstock to receive it. This is not an improvement.

Too late for birthdays?
Do they finish at 5.30?

Anyway it has nothing to do with the postman.
The planner has worked out the most efficient route for the postman. They've been doing it wrong for the last 12 years.
Embrace modernisation. We have.

Postman caught trying to enter property through side window.

That would be a new experience.
Most of the ones I know prefer the back door.

Perhaps I should have wrote <Postie caught trying to escape from side window> Not you is it Clash!
