Royal Mail (6)

Posted on by

(The pic above is admittedly 3 years old, but it got lost in the fucking post – DA)

I would like to draw the attention of my fellow cunters to Royal Mail who have decided to increase the price of a first class stamp by 9p (over 10%) from January 1st.

Way back in the 1960s when I was suffering a public school education my dear old pa wrote to me every Sunday and the letter was delivered each Monday without fail. The stamp cost 3d ,a gnat’s whisker over 1p. A pint of beer cost eight times the price of a stamp.

Whilst our postal workers tend to be excellent the management is shite. Mrs Guzzi recently sent a birthday card to a friend in Cornwall; it took 17 days to arrive from Derby with a first class stamp.

Royal Mail says that 2020 has been ‘challenging ‘. Well , I have news for them , 2021 is going to be even more challenging for them.

On a more positive note , Mrs G and I have become grandparents. My daughter gave birth to Sophie Emma at 2.06am on December 1st.

  1. E-mails, Amazon, Yodel….Royal Mail’s days are numbered as a big player.

    Congrats on the grandsprog….

  3. The Royal Fail.
    Useless cunts.
    I don’t want my neighbour’s fucking electricity bill.
    Wankers.

  4. Total cunts. I had to piss about going through the motions of filing against Royal Mail when they left my parcel 📦 in my “designated safe place” my greenhouse. Only fucking thing is I don’t have a greenhouse. Cunts

  6. Still better than fucking Hermes though…if you want shit from a shit fountain, try Hermes.

    • Actually I’m really impressed with Herpes. They set out to create the worst, most useless, most fucking dishonest delivery service in the world and by god they’ve succeeded.

      Bravo, you useless fucking cunts Herpes.

  7. Couple of years ago I purchase something expensive from an associate in Scotland. Just before Christmas.

    He (meaning I) paid a fortune to send it fully insured, full bells and whistles.
    He then phoned me up to make sure I was satisfied.
    I replied – it hasn’t arrived yet.
    He says-according to the tracking it was delivered at 9.45am today.

    Now, it had, by coincidence, snowed heavily the previous night and it was obvious that no vehicle or pedestrian had been through my gate-plus, numerous CCTV in the grounds and around the house and garages.

    I phoned the local post office depot and they confirmed it had been delivered. I explained about the snow and no tracks, the camera’s etc.

    So they checked his van-the driver / postie had left my parcel and several others in his van and had signed them off as delivered-when they questioned him, he had at this point gone on Christmas leave, his excuse was:

    “There was snow and I didn’t want to get stuck”

    What a fucking cunt.

    Great Cunting-gets my backing👍

    • I do hope you persuaded them that after his Christmas leave his first port of call should be the job centre?

  8. Congrats on the sprog. One day you’ll be able to see/hold her.
    I’ve just moaned at Fleabay, I ordered some of those button cells on the 1st should have been here by yesterday at the latest. Hopefully I’ll get a refund and they will turn up a day or two later. Fucking Post Office.

    • I got something from eBay delivered today that had, supposedly, been sent by 2nd class post on 21st November. Sadly there’s no postmark I can check.

    • The workings of the delivery services are a complete mystery. A couple of months ago I ordered a new foil for my electric shaver from Amazon. Turns out the actual seller was in China. It arrived the next day!! From fucking China!!

  10. We have great posties here. Helpful and friendly. However they are having more and more dumped on them such as collecting parcels and so on with no help or extra hands. Management are indeed cunts.

  11. Many congratulations Guzzi!
    My grandson was born not long ago.
    He was named Hermes because he was delivered late and over the garden fence.
    😀

  12. “A pint of beer cost eight times the price of a stamp”

    Not much has changed then. No use complaining to the posties about the price of stamps round my way unless you speak Dooshka-Dooshka as they’re all Polish/Slovakian/Czech mooks.

    “Excuse me, this is for down the road.”
    “Korr-vahh, korr-vahh, dooshka mava-gloush-ka, shlabba borsh Lek Walenska korr-vaa korrrrr-vaaa.”

    • Beer must be bloody expensive in your neck of the woods. Post codes were introduced in the late 1960s as was a great deal of technology to reduce costs. Beer like petrol , has fairly hefty taxes imposed so a direct comparison is difficult.

      • I would point out that it was two shillings for a pint of Gales Bitter in my local, The Star near Havant Station. Fuck knows what a pint cost in B&WC’s den of turpitude.

      • 2nd class is 60p, isn’t it? I have paid over a Lady Godiva for a pint in London though, Guzzi.
        Criminal really.

      • Back In the day I am talking about all post was first class. I recall the post office in Portsmouth saying that a letter posted by 6pm would be in Glasgow by 9am the next day. All for 3d, not bad at all.

  13. Back in the 19th century there were 6 deliveries a day and you could send a cooked chicken and it would arrive, still warm. It was the only contact most people had with the state and was a state of the art organisation. Its interesting to note that the more the state intrudes into everyones live the worse Royal mail gets.

  14. Never ceases to amaze me how the Royal Mail will quite happily deliver your parcel to next door, or the bloke over the road, but when you want to go and collect it from the post office they won’t release it to you without presenting them with two forms of identification and a letter from your mam.

  15. Congratulations on your wanted arrival 🙂
    How can the Post Orifice possibly explain why given all the new technology etc. they have bragged about increasing “efficiency”, it now takes longer to deliver the mail than it does to walk there yourself?
    Even after the EUSSR forced us to sell off the Post Office, the only “improvement” has been in the size of the top dogs pay packets? It cannot be “because we are worth it” because they aren’t!

  17. You know when they drop all that junk mail through your letterbox for extra revenue?
    Mine goes straight back in the post box, sort that out and whistle you cunts.

  18. My post used to be delivered by a young postwoman. You could set your watch by her, 10.25am every morning. She went missing for weeks and the deliveries went all to cock. Then she turned up again and when I asked where she’d been, she said she’d hurt her shoulder. Haven’t seen her since and the deliveries have been all over the place, got one at 5.15pm last week. But this morning my post arrived at 10am. Is this the dawning of a new day? Give the CEO a pay rise!

  19. Forgetting the cuntings

    Congratulations A cunt who cunts on becoming a grandparent (notice no gender bias)

  20. I used to work for Royal Mail and the amount of hash and dildos that came through on a nightshift from London was amazing!

  21. So unreliable and outmoded her maj’s Post Road become, that these days they have to resort to sending you your kidnapped kids in Wayfair cabinets. Talk about a ‘kinder’ surprise!

  22. Considering the only way to get most goods at the moment for myself is online I’m fucked with the delivery service. I’ve ordered 4 items two of them over 2 weeks ago and I’m still awaiting them. One of them is being sent by Royal Mail tracked 48hrs and they received it from the company last Monday week. Well worth my 4.99 postage fee

  23. Congratulations on your Granddaughters birth. Was she delivered early or late. Hell of a package to squeeze through that letterbox though
