Weird mail arrived Thursday 4th Feb. My name was on the envelope, and an address a few doors down.

It was the kind of thing you often get as email spam, but printed out, photocopied, and many pages of the stuff.

Nothing offensive, but weird. I'd ignore it, but I'd like to know where this joker got my name from... Anyone else had anything like this?

EDdaddy had something like this although name and address were correct. Pages of ramblings which I think were of a racist nature. The postmark was Birmingham or somewhere else in the Midlands. We just ignored it and binned it. We also bought a shredder in case we had accidentally left something with our names and addresses on it in the recycling or rubbish.

I got one of that ilk, by post, some years ago. I've also, again some time ago, seen some of the content pasted up on the secure box thing outside ED station. Harmless, but I hope he doesn't waste too much of his money.

But which point you mention caused you not to use him again? ;-)

    • Rant ahead: You're not one of them but unfortunately, there's a substrate of posters here that do very little except moan and come up with weird conspiracy theories. They're immediately highly critical of just about any change, and their initial assumption is that everyone else is a total fucking contemptible idiot. For example: don't you think that the people who run the libraries will have considered the impact of timing of reconstruction on library users? (In fact, we know they have - because they've made arrangements at other libraries to attempt to mitigate the disruption). After all, these are the people that spend their whole working week thinking about libraries and dealing with library users (and the kids especially). You don't go into the library game for the chicks and fame - so it's fair to assume that librarians are committed to public service and public access to libraries, including by kids. Likewise the built environment people (engineers, architects, construction managers, project managers, construction contractors, subcontractors or whoever is on this job) are told to minimise disruption on every job they do. The thing that occurs to us as amateurs within 30 seconds of us seeing something is probably not something a full time professional hasn't thought about! Southwark Council, the NHS, TfL, Dulwich Estate, Thames Water, Openreach - they're not SPECTRE factories filled with malevolent chaosmongers trying to persecute anyone. They're mostly filled with people who understand their job and try to do their best with what they've been given - just like all of us. Nobody is perfect or immune from challenge, and that's fair enough, but why not at least start from the assumption that there's a good reason why things have been done the way they have? Any normal person would be pleased that their busy, pretty, lively local library is getting refurbished, and will have more space and facilities for kids and teens, and will be more efficient to run and warmer in winter. But no, EDT_Forumite_752 had kids who did an exam 20 years ago, and this makes them an expert on library refurbishment who can see it's all just stuff and nonsense for the green agenda and why can't it all be put off... 😡😡😡
    • I completely misread the previous post, sorry. For some reason I thought the mini cooper was also a police vehicle, DUH.
