I think there was an itsy bitsy strike. Affected a few people in the north of the country...

...oh yeah and the middle




...oh and the south


in fact it was pretty much the entire country.


I think it made the TV....and the papers....and the wireless...and t'inter-web.

Hmmmmm :rolleyes:

Am aware of the strike (hence the title!), question is, are they still clearing a backlog or is normal service resumed and my stuff has been lost/stolen/thrown away/never sent ????

I'm still waiting for stuff sent out to arrive and stuff sent to me. Nearly a month for some of it...

All mine seems to have finally filtered through.

Why what have you ordered for that kwak now?

The amount you've spent you could of had a brand new CBR. :)

I'm waiting for some post that was posted on the 8th, from somewhere else in London - I had the same thoughts! I'm hoping there is still a backlog but I don't know how to find out.

Was speaking to my local postie after the last lot of strikes. He just did OT to catch up on the backlog of post. A day's strike actually earnt him an extra half day of pay.

our mail centre in the midlands is more or less on top of the work now but parcels,packets and letters are being shipped in from Liverpool where they were on strike longer any other offices, i believe some office's in London were also out longer than they should.
