You missed out the words "official" (Safeplace) and "designated" (neighbour) :wink:

Yes, I did wonder about that..............does that mean we have to decide if we'll go back again that night :hmmmm Needless to say I didn't use that today until the management explain it to me (which mean I could be waiting a very long time :chuckle ).

Alternatively - we will pop back tonight between 6-9pm (you omitted) (If this box is ticked please try and ensure somebody will be at home to receive your item. If you are not in when we call, you can collect your item the next working day at the address overleaf.)

IMHO forget it and just complete the two boxes on the reverse side.

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.

Between 6 & 9 at night might cause a problem..................loads of people are starting at midnight, 4 or 5 so they are ineligible. Christ knows who agreed that crackpot scheme.
