  • I got fed up with charging for postage on e bay and then when I sent it of it was dearer, so I now weigh my parcel before I go, and query any differences. This collect+ for heavy items is really go, you do it yourself online, drop it off get a receipt, no hassel.:j
  • I love my post office, the family who run it are great. They never care how many parcels i take in, always do pop for me, theyre sooo friendly too. The owners always ask bout me/my kids, & make a real fuss of them if theyre with me, so i normally go once ive picked my daughter up from school now. Plus their son works there sometimes and is gorgeous lol. I dont use paypal postage or owt cos dont have a printer, and i think ive gone in with up to 15 parcels before n nobodys ever moaned, well not that ive heard lol-but if they did id just say ive queued same as everyone else, or smile sweetly and go slower.......

    Doesn't take long for the racists to crawl out does it.

    Especially the ones who don't understand what racist means. Dutch People from Holland (TNT) and French people from France (Utility Companies) are of the same race as "us"

    You are quoting a post over 3 1/2 years old- I think that might be a record even here on MSE.

    Incidentally, if we are talking 'racist' are you really happy with your signature in this racially aware day and age?
