Just thought I would bump this thread.

As we are entering their most busy period,

also to say that visited Sylvester Rd at 07.15 this morning (open from 06.30 till Christmas!) & was met with a cheery welcome & very swift service.

Staff welcomed the extended hours & the Overtime that ensues.

I have been receiving all my packages lately, albeit one or two days late sometimes. I did have problems with two items that I posted in the Goodrich Road mailbox (near the school) three weeks ago - neither has reached its destination yet.

I have ordered a lot of stuff from Amazon and other online sites in the last few weeks, and it has all arrived very quickly and been delivered by the postie with no trouble at all.


The only parcel I have had a problem with was the one delivered by a non-Royal Mail firm.

Oh Dear it keeps happening!!

My sister sent me a parcel from Europe (sent as letter so should come with Royal Mail from my experience).....still not here two weeks later and no 'pick up note'.

Two out of three things ordered on Amazon did arrive but one still missing and will luckily be replaced.

I sometimes have to pick up my parcels at Cans on Forest Hill Road (usually parcel force though). Called them they were very helpful but didn't have my stuff.

Tried Sylvester Road sorting office and was told 'If you haven't got a note through the door love it ain't here'.....they also never pick up the phone, have called them numerous times and it's definitely the right number.

Very frustrating....

Rpyal mail has infprmed me if the parcel has still not arrived after two weeks I can complain (and I suppose I have nothing better to do!!!!!)

Moan moan.....

Why, did she write "cheque enclosed" on the outside in large letters to make it more interesting looking? :)


If I'm sending a cheque I always make sure it isn't visible from outside, eg enclose it in plain paper if the envelope is thin ......

Its all well and good complaining about the sorting office. Owning a house in silvester road - I do know some of them and the permanent staff are good honest people. I would also like to raise the point about all those that come to collect their letters and decide to park in the middle of the road/park illegally......if you are collecting a letter, park properly and do not block the road!!!!!

hi, i have posted separately also, but unhappily i have had a parcel go missing. sent recorded delivery, and just an unintelligable signature on the online tracking website.


im gutted as the item is one of a kind, its a home-made cushion.


i wont be able to go and complain until next saturady (I have to leave for work before the sorting office opens) but if anyone has mistakenly signed for it i would be very grateful to get it back. First name Amy, house number 38.

    • The country didn't "hate Corbyn". Labour under Corbyn got more votes than Labour under Starmer, if memory serves, and it was only due to our weird electoral system that they didn't win the previous election. Any hatred of Corbyn was whipped up by the right wing press. The Labour Party has completely lost its way. It doesn't seem to know what it stands for any more, and its members have deserted it in droves. Including me. Anyway, this is probably for the lounge, not being directly relevant to the subject of the thread.
    • Agree but Labour made a far worse start and the wheels seem to be falling off spectacularly quickly. Whatever the reason for Reeves' tears it made the markets very jittery and now there is real doubt about how much longer she will last but Starmer cannot afford to lose her - I think they are both toast and the likes of Rayner and Streeting will be licking their chops. A bit like what is happening with Cllr McAsh locally the internal politics of the Labour party always are the real driver of policy, direction and execution and for a government with such a huge majority to be struggling so much so early is really worrying. We should all be very scared because this is paving the way for Reform and a leadership challenge or swing to the farther-left within Labour would be an unmitigated disaster - we had another term of Boris because the country hated Corbyn and his far-left ideology and the far-left Labour may see a leadership challenge as their only feasible way to take the reigns - a bit like Cllr McAsh and his Momentum buddies.
    • He has been around for a few months now and looks so sad and unhappy   ,he is coming into the gardens at the top end of  Upland and  Dunstans Roads .Just wondered if he is owned as he is not neutered and keeps getting into fights with cats .
    • Starting with Brexit, all the way through to drunken lock down parties, and then finishing on Liz Truss' 'mini budget', I would say it was fairly disastrous from start to finish.
