Re: I think I've only ever had a rant on here about twice but.....
 

Used to have a postie here who seemed to use a random number generator to determine who got what. You would see the neighbourhood out a tea time redelivering his fr*gging round.

He also had a 5 minute rant at my missus one day that our letterbox had caused him to cut his hand to ribbons, had to go home, lost pay, sick leave, kids now starving, we were responsible etc.

Then as he left my now slightly traumatised other half he said 'well I think it was your letterbox....'

However, flip side is new postie, a young fit lass, who leaves a note with a smiley face saying 'have carefully hidden your parcels in such a place'. Nice one.

Funnily when our useless postie has the day off, our post is delivered by a lady postie, so we get it early and not half way through the afternoon

You should have met the postie we had in 2003

Paul, you're not the only one.

From the BBC election blog tonight:

1. 0043: BBC reporter Danny Carpenter in York says hundreds of postal ballots have gone missing in the city. The problems are being blamed on a printing error and a temporary closure at the local postal sorting office. In York Outer, the Lib Dems had a notional majority of just 203, meaning the missing votes could have a significant impact and pave the way for a losing party to challenge tonight's result in the courts.
