Extortionate Concert Ticket Prices
I know this is probably a fairly regular vent, but what the heck... I am a massive country music fan, and a company this year set up a big show at the O2 arena bringing over a small number of big artists from the US to perform.

Wouldn't it be great if a list of retailers using Yodel as their courier could be compiled and kept updated on here! I thought I'd rid myself of the "couriers from hell" back in Christmas 2011 when they did their best to ruin it for us by holding back parcels in their depot until after Christmas depite them claiming they…
