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.

    • Morally they should, but we don't actually vote for parties in our electoral system. We vote for a parliamentary (or council) representative. That candidates group together under party unbrellas is irrelevant. We have a 'representative' democracy, not a party political one (if that makes sense). That's where I am on things at the moment. Reform are knocking on the door of the BNP, and using wedge issues to bait emotional rage. The Greens are knocking on the door of the hard left, sweeping up the Corbynista idealists. But it's worth saying that both are only ascending because of the failures of the two main parties and the successive governments they have led. Large parts of the country have been left in economic decline for decades, while city fat cats became uber wealthy. Young people have been screwed over by student loans. Housing is 40 years of commoditisation, removing affordabilty beyond the reach of too many. Decently paid, secure jobs, seem to be a thing of the past. Which of the main parties can people turn to, to fix any of these things, when the main parties are the reason for the mess that has been allowed to evolve? Reform certainly aren't the answer to those things. The Greens may aspire to do something meaningful about some of them, but where will they find the money to pay for it? None of it's easy.
    • Yes, but the context is important and the reason.
    • That messes up Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland - democracy being based on citizenship not literacy. There's intentionally no one language that campaign materials have to be in. 
    • TBH if people don't see what is sectarian in the materials linked to above when they read about them, then I don't think me going on about it will help. They speak for themselves.  I don't know how the Greens can justify promising to be a strong voice for one particular religion. Will that pledge hold when it comes to campaigning in East Dulwich (which is majority atheist)? https://censusdata.uk/e02000836-east-dulwich/ts030-religion
