The Royal Mail have axed some postal deliveries in and around the Lordship Lane Estate since Christmas week after a postman was assaulted. Residents can collect post from the delivery office in Silvester Road Mon, Tues, Thurs-Sat 10am-1pm and Weds 10am-8pm.

So I went to the sorting office today and was handed 1 lonely letter dated 6th January 2016.

I wonder where all my other letters are that I'm expecting over the last 2 weeks.

The postman behind the counter looked blankly at me when I asked. He confirmed that that our postman had been assaulted....sad state of affairs.

I picked up my post from Silvester Road during that period, so today's post was sent after Jan 13th.

    • We did fine for 300 years with the Royal Mail before the current "competitive" shambles was introduced. Now we have multiple companies with multiple vehicles making deliveries to the same streets every day, none of the workers are employees with decent working conditions or any job security, and consumers have to deal with x different distribution networks and apps and platforms and drop-off points... https://postandparcel.info/12422/news/uk-royal-mails-monopoly-to-end-on-1-january-2006/
    • That's certainly the narrative that runs ad infinitum on the Forum but I wonder how true it is. Speaking for myself I'm very happy M&S, Superdrug, Pret and, in the last century, Sainsbury's arrived and judging from the business they do I'm not alone.
    • There are Christmas lights?! Or a, I missing something?
    • Though it's often the big corporates who dig deepest. For small independents that's a bigger ask, decorating, when they do their own premises is cost enough. And we're normally happy not to have the big corporates in LL.
