  1. Thanks Ladygooner, but I don't want to go the Customer Services route and fit into their 'complaint' template and get an apology, and be assured etc ..., and possibly not much else done. Probably a waste of everybody's time. I just want to help rectify a specific failing in the simplest possible way. If the office supervisor isn't contactable, I think I'm actually going to have to speak to my postie myself next time I see him. Revolutionary. I'll show him the snap I took of the latest offending envelope. :)
  2. Does anyone have the Silvester Road Delivery Office number? It seems to have been omitted from my BT phone book, and the only version found on the web was incorrect. Had two needless misdeliveries in the last few days, both addressed to totally different roads. A quick word with the supervisor might be a useful thing to do.
  3. Well, Mr HonaloochieB, innocent that I am, and uncertain as to your motivation, I nevertheless followed your search suggestion; a search from which I may say I return unscathed, nonplussed and mystified. I chose the path called Google images. The first item I met along it was a picture of Mr Osama Bin Ladn. The following ones were equally inconsequential and unedifying. I am sorely tempted to interject, in the manner of Miss Anne Josephine Robinson, "So Mr HonaloochieB, who do you think /you're/ channelling then? What astral plane are /you/ on?" It is now nearly 24 hours since we heard from Ms B, in bizarre and alarming circumstances. Her last communication ended "This is very troubling: am beginning to doubt my own existence." And yet, at a time when there is a very real possibility that she may be the victim of a cyber-possession or cyber-abduction, you seek to divert with frippery. May I suggest, sir, that you pull yourself together and come up with something altogether more positive.
  4. I see it's happened on another thread too, Ms B. Have you previously noticed any sign of possessing psychic talents? Any traces of ectoplasm in your vicinity?

Any of these. Here's a possibly useful selection from a google 'uk atm card skim' image search: http://www.bustathief.com/2007/08/atm-fraud-or-cash-money-theft-is-as-old.html http://www.lightbluetouchpaper.org/2006/03/30/fraud-or-feature/ http://www.strathclyde.police.uk/index.asp?locID=1204&docID=-1
  6. Perhaps I should switch places with the OP. At the beginning of the month I heard some unusal birdcalls, so got out my binoculars and started taking a closer interest in the birdlife at the back of the house. I was ever so pleased with myself for eventually spotting and identifying four sparrowhawks, who have taken to hanging around, mainly just perching and watching. The very considerable downside of this is that I don't think I've seen or heard a single head of the local small community of songbirds in the past week. I just hope that most of them managed to get asylum elsewhere. I'd swap them for the sparrowhawks any day.
