the reason there are so many threads is because it keeps getting moved to the business section, which is annoying and i don't really see why...

Should threads be moved elsewhere and another is started up it would be really helpful, to those that might not navigate around the forum so much or even realise (those on mobile devices) there are other sections, for others to link on the thread where they might find it...

not sure why it's not allowed in the general section, it's the post office! not a restaurant.


anyway i'm self employed and rely on the post office, i just went by and it's still closed, same sign. i would assume it's not coming back, but we shall see on monday.

Urgh, my parcel appears to be stuck in the Forest Hill Road PO - I posted an urgent overnight parcel on Monday evening and it never arrived. Now I've got no way of retrieving it or contacting anyone about it, as Parcelforce have no record of it and no one is answering the phone at the FHR PO. There's not so much as a note on the door saying what is happening.


Does anyone knows anything about when it will reopen? Obviously I hope everyone who works there is OK.

I passed the Post Office yesterday and today. The queue is out the door and down the street and there is also a queue there for Barclays, a bus stop and people walking along the road. There was no social distancing because of the number of people- the whole area is a disaster waiting to happen

Are you sure the M and S queue wasn't going down Chesterfield grove...that's where it was going yesterday?

It is today, but was quiet when I went past yesterday afternoon.



Just used the PO, was about a 20 min wait.

A bit difficult to do IF say I dunno... they don't have staff due to self isolation...

Just putting that thought out there!

It's easy to say this and that should be operating how you expect them to do so but people really need to think of others too.

Queued at Walworth rd branch for 2 hours to post something back. That was being there an hour before opening hours. The amount of people waiting was enormous! It had been closed for a few days and seemed like a one off to be open. Was exhausted mentally after, couldn't wait to get home.

      Fireworks

      I completely agree with you - and last night was really terrible where I am. Between midnight and 1am was the worst, where it genuinely felt like a war zone. I had to run out of my house to try and stop a grown man setting them off in open space right by our front doors. In response he went to throw a half lit one at me and then seemed to think better of it. I am so sad at how bad the situation has got here and how selfish people are. Fireworks are bad for the environment and for pets and wildlife, as well as just being unnecessary noise for people too. I have sent an email today to Helen Hayes, which I have done previously on this issue. Would advise anyone to write to your MP to do the same, and to ask them to engage with the debates scheduled for 19 Jan.

      The Dutch are addicted to New Year fireworks and spent €130million this year on them. However,  sales to individuals will be banned as from this year and celebrations will be organised by local and city councils. I have Dutch friends and for them, this can’t come soon enough. However, at least there it’s concentrated  on one night. Here, it’s never ending, any excuse to make a noise is seized upon with gusto. In addition to the annual celebrations, add birthdays, weddings, engagements, divorces, christenings, BBQs, etc etc. I dare say you can funerals to that list as well. Yesterday it started mid-afternoon and just carried on until the early hours. In the past, I’ve been woken up at 4am. Anyyone who doesn’t like it can go hang and you can ignore completely the  effects on people’s animals and wildlife. Don’t hold your breath about anything being done here, however.
