What is happening to our postal deliveries?

I have just had my post delivered at 7.05PM !

Since the privatisation of the service the deliveries seem to take place at any time of the day, but today they have set a new record. I feel a bit sorry for the posties still delivering mail at this time of day.

Was it a Postie or a good neighbour dropping in a misposted item

Look on the bright side, you may have had tomorrow’s mail half a day early!

I’m glad you think its acceptable to have mail delivered after 7pm.

I believe it’s stated somewhere in the Bible that late postal deliveries are one of the precursors to the four horsemen of the apocalypse.
I do hope they don’t go and spoil the weekend for us.

I think you’re getting some harsh comments here John. I’m totally on your side.
The issue isn’t that you’re not getting your mail when expected, just the hour at which it arrives.
And after accepting that its not coming on that day, going out , maybe to the pub or whatever, coming home to find the dreaded red and white card on the floor telling you that you’ve missed a delivery.
Of course, on going into town the next day to the sorting office, you discover that there’s no customer parking available there.
So, either you risk a fine by parking across the road by dunhelm mill and walking back over to the sorting office or find somewhere in the centre of town to park and walk there.
