    I saw the vans going round emptying post boxes this morning but I thought they did anyway.

    i recall being surprised at seeing the PO opened at a Tesco once, on a Sunday. I was on holiday at the time , a couple of years ago...I assume its still opens on a Sunday!
  • I think many/most postboxes have a single sunday collection, and I'd heard about some offices being opened on sundays in the run up to Christmas, but today I was amazed to answer the door and find a postman deliverying a standard 1st class package! Had definately never seen sunday deliveries before! Something to look forward to tho as means I might actually be at home to recieve some of the parcels insted of having to go to the depot to collect :j

  • The only disadvantage to sunday delivery is our postman delivers at an ungodly hour sometimes which gets the dog going sunday is the only time to sleep past 8 when our daughter shuts her door 3/4 times and then says sorry did I wake you!
  • This wasn't the big PO with the sorting office attached but the smaller one at the other end of Huddersfield.

    Thank you for this - I was able to call in today with several parcels, and no queue! :D
