Sorry Mr/Mrs Post-person, but just now you're really pishing me off!
Im waiting on a few things to turn up in the post, BUT we have not received ANY post at all since LAST Friday.
Now thats not right!
Last Friday the post arrived with an elastic band around ALL of the mail, as if it had been saved up for a few days!
No doubt this is due to holiday cover or something, but its still pretty poor!
Anyone have similar experiences, or have some insider knowledge?

Just normal post... Usually it is next day for first class. (was actually quite impressed)
BUT in the last 2 weeks the post has gone crap! Must be holiday season I guess?
Still frustrating though!

Its not to bad round my way, but i think its cos i'm waaaaay out up north east and the postal problems haven't reached us yet!
If you read the royal mail guidelines first calls is actually classed as up to 4 days and 2nd class up to 6/7days which is an absolute piss take!
