Dont worry...you will have your Arctic Russian style postal service very soon when Adam et al force through their changes.

1 delivery per week per address...if youre lucky
Unless you are a member of the Postal Politburo, or another apparatchik, such as a parlimentarian or executive of a mail service, or even a Union leader :cuppa
I don't suppose your mouth bleeds every 28 days, does it?

Mail delivery; those that can, do, those that can't, MANAGE!

I just hope the potato soup is seasoned and the central heating is on in the gulag after my 12 hour delivery with sacks on my feet.
