another royal mail cock up!
Heard today from a romec guy that for the last few months they have had to fit 27,000 new metal information displays to every postbox.
They had 400 left to go and thought they were doing well as they had another 2 weeks to complete the task - then the memo came today!
"SUSPEND ALL WORK - WE'VE JUST NOTICED A SPELLING MISTAKE ON THE NEW DISPLAYS"
So now they are waiting to see if they have to remove the lot and start all over again

There's always organizing these as a sideline or another career choice for our masters
