Just wondering if anyone else has been having a problem with their post recently? I've had several items that have not turned up including a film from Lovefilm, a contract for my new job and my car insurance. I've just spoken to the postman and he doesn't understand why. I guess I'll have to pop into the Silvester Road post office.

I was having problems with non-delivered love-films just before xmas.


All back to normal now - but haven't had any post for the last wfew days though.


make sure you report it via the love film website and fill out the royal mail claim forms they send you (assuming they get delivered!)

Yes, they are truly awful. Think it's the reserve postmen though that are at fault. We have a lazy reserve postie who dumps my whole building's mail through my letter box making me the second reserve postie. Anyway, had enough, called up on following number 08456112448. Filed a complaint and it seems to have improved, though don't know if that's to do with the main man returning from wherever.
If it's a big parcel/just too big for the letterbox and doesn't need a signature they sometimes put it on the doorstep so I come home and my parcel is leaning up against the door in full view of the road... Amazon parcels have gone missing but luckily the majority are still there when I get home at 7 - thankfully people must be honest on our road...
Just to have a moan about the post office. I received a red slip from them the other week saying a package was too big to go through the letter box. Went down to Silvester Road on Saturday morning to pick it up and got in the queue, and this thing turned out to be the smallest package I have ever seen in my life. Probably smaller than a ring box. And it turned out to be junk mail just to top it off. Aaaaaahhhhhhhh...

    • There are two causes for this problem Β  The first is that modern safety requirements for cars (to protect pedestrians and cyclists in collisions) mean huge amounts of excess spacing in crumple zones to provide a cushion on impact. For example, in the past a lot of pedestrians suffered catastrophic head injuries when they ran in front of a car, because the bonnet was close to the engine block, so their heads bent the bonnet into the solid immovable engine and their heads cam off worse. To mitigate that there is now a huge amount of flex and space so that the head is cushioned from the engine. Naturally, the rest of the body work and car frame has had to increase to accommodate this safety measure. Β  The second issue is electrification. Β  Electric cars are massive because they have to carry huge batteries around to make them work. Massive amounts of space and height is given over to batteries in electric cars. The new electric Renault 5 (described as a "compact" hatch back) is nearly 4 metres long 2 metres wide.Β  Β  That makes it longer and wider than the original Range Rover.Β 
    • Pretentious status vehicles.Β  Last year I was trying to drive down my own street but, being in a little, inferior car, was expected to make way for a stream of SUVs / Chelsea tractors as they barged along beside me. After what felt like an age, I saw a window of opportunity, but was beaten to it by yet another tank. By this stage I was irate (I hate the things) and having a full on shouting match with myself behind the wheel.Β  A Tesla in the oncoming queue pulled in, flashed and courteously allowed me to take my moment. The Tesla's windows were tinted, but not so much that I wasn't able to make out the driver, as I passed him. I'd recognise that mega-watt smile anywhere. It was Peter Crouch, laughing and giving me the thumbs up, clearly entertained by my tantrum.Β 
    • I recently had a utility room built, next to the kitchen. Dean Richards and his team carried out the works, they did a fantastic job. Thorough, with attention to every detail.Β  If you are considering an extension, refurbishment or renovation, Dean comes highly recommended.Β  Dean RichardsΒ  07888 651798 Β
