Where is mail being delayed?
It would be interesting to know where large back-logs of mail have built up. eg how many days-worth of letters are waiting in Northampton?

Re: Where is mail being delayed?
Rather than anyone giving away their location. Could anyone wanting to help out with this, please PM Postman, Teebs, or myself. And we'll post the information for you.

Also, some areas are much worse than others. For example: I've been told that the Warrington MC is particularly bad. I'll post any more info I get for you.

Re: Where is mail being delayed?
What area do you live in?
If there's someone on here from that area, we might be able to find out for you. But sadly, that's as much as we can do from here. Because as Teebs said: We only have access to official information (publicly available), and first hand accounts from Posties who come on here. We do have Posties from all over the Country on here though, so hopefully someone can tell you what's going on. Because it IS unusual for deliveries to stop, if it's not due to severe weather, or dog attacks (which you would no doubt have heard about, if that was it).
