    Stealing People's Mail

    I'va alaways ahad the utmost faith in the postal service. Until recently as I've had 3 things go missing in the last few months.

    Anyone else? I guess you need to send stuff registered mail but I absolutely loathe and detest going to post offices. It always involves standing in on of those winding queues which tend to move very slowly and are full of rather unsavoury people.

    You'd have Thought there would be an online way of doing registered mail these days. You go to a website, pay up and print out the label which you stick to you packet.

    Perhaps it does exist, I'll have to check.

        I personally don't trust Royal Mail at all. The recent TV advert they have released just strikes me as ironic.

        It's a sad state of affairs when I have to send everything by registered post just to be sure it will get there.
        £1.70 for a letter this morning that should have just cost me the price of a stamp.

          I had living in a flat in London, someone kept nicking the post from a Chinese student and only hers

          It turned out to be some black bloke who didn't like immigrants

          Why the postie didn't question why someone who spoke like a gansta rapper might not be Chinese was a mystery
          Socialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the state.

          No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp, or violently-worded expressions of public discontent.

            I heard at least 20 Chinese persons complaining about Black persons in the last 12 months. Why is that?

            If UKIP are the answer, then it must have been a very stupid question.

              Oh, you can do it. Coolio.

              Don't particularly like having to pay the premium just to ensure my letters arrive but at least I can avoid the queues.

                I caught them in the act signing for someone elses mail, and even more stupidly in their own name

                Still took over six months for the post office to look into then no acknowledgement but she did stop losing mail so a win

                  I thought this was a thread about stealing tulip newspapers
                  While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'
