Postal Strike - do you care?

The post woman opposite gets up at 4am to let the dogs out, usually in a nightie

Why do the dogs go out in a nightie?

Not great...I've to send in my Books to CH and HMRC end of next week. Looks like I'm gonna have to courier them down. HMRC might give me a break (as I've no tax to pay) but CH won't.

So the post gets delayed for a day or few, big deal. What's the point of not working for a day or two when all it means is they have more work to do clearing up the backlog when they get back - temps are unlikely to be able to keep up IMO. My sympathy disappears when people go on strike. They should threaten to resign and resign if necessary, and then the Royal Mail, government and UK PLC would be in the tulip. None of this pansying around striking nonsense. Do it properly or feck off back to work. Easier said than done I know.

Now I know why all my junk mail delivered to my Brussels Address from the UK arrives from Sweden. What a pitty I don't collect stamps

I had flurry of computer related junk mail from Denmark and Holland during the nineties. I think the big internationals simply sent it from the country who offered the best deals for bulk post.

At one time BT tried using Malta for European addresses. The solicitor's letter came before the bill, which I took great delight in pointing out to them

No.

I've reached a Zenlike state where I no longer give a tulipe about anything whatsoever.

I've ordered some electronic trickery from DealExtreme in Hong Kong, I've tracked the order till it was in the air... I suspect it will stay there for quite some time.

This will cause massive disruption to me. The post woman opposite gets up at 4am to let the dogs out, usually in a nightie, sometimes in the nuddie.

What am I supposed to do if my daily service is suspended ?

I had some stuff delivered yesterday, normally it would have come by Royal Mail but the supplier has now switched to HDN.
