Are they on strike? Haven't had any post that we should have all week and haven't seen the postwoman walking up the street like we usually do.

Must have been about a week now since we have had post.

Yep... north leics seems ok. Bills still arriving unfortunately. Loads of tat being delivered that the Mrs keeps ordering.... very irritating

Yeah that's like my stuff, with Royal Mail within the UK but just seems to have stopped dead.

Sellers saying they have posted it about 3 weeks ago and it's with in Royal Mail's system somewhere.

Postman's been coming every day to me, Nick. Maybe you are not quite as popular.

...or maybe you should just pay them CCJ's Otis

Seems a lot quieter.
Have had a letter this morning though.
To someone who hasn't lived here for years.
Two parcels,one for me and one for the same house No but two streets away .

All letters from my many rich Nigerian uncles, JHFC

Maybe it's my technique? Not enough attention to the balls?

Was their parcel anything good?

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

Still getting post here. Admittedly not as much as usual but postman is still going around.

Maybe the person doing your round has had to self-isolate or something?

Looks like it's a children's toy Byplane

Once got a box of wine for a house 2 villages away. It was the Times wine club so I thought this must be good stuff. Im not proud of the fact that my effort to find the actual recipient wasn’t as thorough as it could have been.

We just throw small bean bags to each other to be honest. The balls just end up in the road.

 

[Grendel]

Haven’t had any post at all for a few days which is unusual

 

[Deleted member 5849]

Still here, but I think they consciously slowed down due to social distancing. Genuinely amazed something from Germany got here in six days, given the circumstances!

And I just get bailiffs rocking up to the wrong address giving it loads

Open but slower for obvious reasons

 

[Otis]

Been coming everyday as usual by me. Same time, same postie.

Get over the park then!!!

 

[clint van damme]

Normal deliveries here

 

[skyblueinBaku]

Post still working here, but not as much mail as usual (which is good because we usually get a lot of junk mail).

 

[Silkysfc]

I'm still working on the post as is ex sky blues midfielder Nicky Platnaeur, remember the first goal v Liverpool before gibbos hatrick #pusb

I work on the post.Letters have dropped down to barely any, which is why you may not be getting any post. Loads of packets though. Lots of postworkers off due to isolating/illness. And there is no one else to cover rounds. So there may be delays at the moment. I know a few places have refused to work due to lack of PPE and social distancing

 

[dutchman]

Very patchy here.

Missing three separate shipments of computer parts from China, been given a refund on the most expensive one and told to keep it for free if it does eventually arrive.

Not received routine bank statements or a very important letter from the DWP regarding my state pension.

Did receive a parcel intended for someone living in the next block but one. You'd think a minimum requirement for being a postman would be the ability to read an address?

 

[wingy]

Is that you Micky?

You're going to have to print/download that statement then Dutch .
I guess Chinese shipments could be all over the shop for a while longer?

Me ?

 

[Johnnythespider]

Still delivering here. I've received about 10 letters from my pension in the last week telling me that the plan growth is -11·5%, bills also, nothing nice though

 

[wingy]

Me ?

No Josh.
