Questions about THE NEWS

[Hobby]

It just that we seem to be getting these sorts of post regular as clockwork when we all know that with lockdown there are bound to be delays.

Perhaps we all need to be patient and wait until we get to the actual start of the month before asking. I feel we need to cut some slack to the packers in these difficult times.

The post is just very busy I'm afraid, what with Covid and the Black Friday sales.

I received a small parcel a couple of days ago that had been sent by the Royal Mail 48hour delivery option.  It took ten days to get here.  Thanks to the tracking system I could see it had not moved at all for the first week.

No it wasn't a railway related item, it was a Christmas present for my wife so much much more important!

I had the same issue with one of my ebay items, Frank. No movement for 7 days then it suddenly arrived at the buyers house. The other two items posted at the same time got there in about 3 days, all were second signed for!

Just FYI, Bill put them in the post in Leeds on Friday (27th), so they should be arriving....

All the best, Julian (smugly reading his).

Mine arrived on my doormat this morning, thus putting paid to any pretense of doing any tidying up.  :)

So folks, someone is needed to step into some pretty big shoes! Are you that person?
