Postal Strike

[hunnymonster]

So far it's treating me well. Yesterday the post arrived at normal time (as you might expect - the delivery staff weren't on strike), this morning it arrived an hour early and containing a package from FragranceX posted only 6 days ago. Working well for me so far...

Well im aiming to get my post out today as it doesn't seem to be as bad as I expected, perhaps another parcel for you tomorrow

My SE blades arrived yesterday, which I would have been surprised about even if there wasn't a strike.

Unfortunately, our local sorting office has a history of striking for no good reason any way, so it's pretty normal to me.

You need to have bike tyres mail-ordered?

No cycle shop or bike repair shop in the neighbourhood?

 

[hunnymonster]

Not a useful one within 50km. Useful for puncture repair kits and the like, but you can buy those at the supermarket...
