We've received a note from parcelforce that a package is awaiting payment of customs duty before it can be delivered. I checked the tracking number to see if it is genuine, it is. Tracking confirmed it came from Melbourne, Australia - bit of a coincidence.


We're not expecting anything and don't intend to pay the customs fee. Please pm me if you think its yours and we can arrange for the customs note to be sent to you.

If it's not a coincidence I'd suspect it was due to a PF employee absent-mindedly misentering the street name on your invoice. Is the postcode yours? Have you in any case given them the chance to check and to rectify any error?


I'd also be very wary of giving any third party apparent title to the package, unless, just perhaps, absolutely convinced that is was meant for them. Far safer to leave the responsibility and risk clearly with PF.

Yes, address is correct but addressee is 'unknown' so it does seem like a system error of some sort. I suppose that means it could be for anyone. Haven't called PF yet but if they reveal the sender I'll use that info to vet whomever claims its theirs.

    • It has come to this author’s attention that the world of 4+ admissions — that most enigmatic of educational rites — continues to bewilder even the most composed of parents. Fear not. For in a former life, I was not merely a humble observer, but a seasoned educator of over twenty years, and Head of Pre-Prep for a distinguished dozen. Now, with quill exchanged for touchscreen, I have taken to that most modern of salons — Instagram — to dispense guidance, answer frequently whispered questions, and illuminate the shadowy corners of school selection with clarity and calm. Each post bears my signature twist: a blend of insight, levity, and the occasional raised eyebrow. Should you find yourself adrift in the sea of admissions, I suggest you peruse my latest dispatch. It may well be the lifeline you seek. The Delicate Dilemma of the Summer-born 4+ Scholars Yours in solidarity and scholastic savvy, Lord Pencilton  🎩✏️
    • Perhaps Gooseygreeny was not familiar with the wildlife before Gala was imposed on the park, since when its value to wildlife has deteriorated. The Park had never been disturbed before, as the council had respected it as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation, so only the Common was licensed by them as a site for events. The first time Gala held their event, there was a tree with woodpeckers nesting in it right in the middle of the main field they used and thrushes, blackbirds and great tits nesting within the shrubs and trees immediately surrounding the field. The woodpeckers were thriving on ants from the anthills in the grass. To those of us who used to enjoy watching the wildlife, it was very obviously a Site of Importance for a variety of birds. Despite being accessed by the public and their dogs, it had been relatively undisturbed,  which was one of the main reasons why it was so special and why I have been opposed to the Gala festival being held during the bird nesting season.
    • So dangerous!    Can you be more specific about the road this was in and when you report it?  Maybe there’s some CCTV footage available
