We have a brilliant postman. Moved about 18 months ago but only in the next avenue. He delivers here even though they are to the old address. Any packages are put round the back in a spare bin we have with a note through the door. Everyone takes in packages for neighbours.

Why go to the Delivery Office to collect?

There will be a phone number on the P739 (that is what the card is called) and you can arrange for your packet or parcel to be re-delivered. That is what I do.

Mainly because we never know when the post will be delivered and we rarely stay in, most dsys

My next door neighbour asked for her parcels to be put into one on her wheelie bins when they were away. The new neighbours at the other side thought they were doing a good deed and put the bin at the end of the path on bin day and their parcels went.

My postman is fantasic has well if I'm out and I have a recorded letter he signs it and puts it through the door, like wise if its a parcel he leaves it at the corner shop over the road.

Brother-in-law sent us a parcel.

It was returned to him with a note from Post office "This address does not exist"

He took the parcel back to the post office, insisted it was a REAL address. Post staff apologised, sent it express post.

It never arrived!

Bro-in-law went back to post office........... they couldn't help.

:-P
