    I have received two magazines from different companies with the addressee as Umit Circir.
    The address is wrong and sois the postcode.
    But they got here to me.
    I cannot find these magazines in the 'No R Number' section but they have not appeared as yet.

    Anyone else been getting strange magazines?

    Hope you aren't reading these strange magazines -they can make you go blind!!!!

    They are sent every month. The quantity of things you send or receive doesn't make a difference. (The only thing is that you may get an extra item to post which is sent separately from the regular weekly envelope and they then send you a book of 12 with the item to be posted.)

    Thanks just wondering whether it is going to be worth me doing it as i have to leave work early some days to get the posting done after 1 and before last post and our local post office is about 3 miles from where i live in opposite direction of where i work and i have to try and park up to get to the box as there is only one post office in my postcode, might do a couple more and see how it works out.

    thanks again

    I'd better say in advance, don't try transferring labels between sheets to make a full one. This is a surefire way of ruining your printer, should one become detatched while printing.

    Easiest way to do it in Word is to use the Label wizard. Where that is in the UI depends on which version of Word you are using but it is always in the same general location as all the Mailmerge functions. If anyone knows what the actual label manufaturer/number is: pipe up now otherwise you will need to define a custom label format (look for a button on the label dialog saying something like "new label") The numbers I use are:
    Top Margin=0 cm
    Label Height=3.64 cm
    Side Margin=1 cm
    Label Width=9.49 cm
    Vertical Pitch=3.64 cm
    Horizontal Pitch=10.5 cm
    Number Across=2
    Number Down=8
    Page Size=A4
    This isn't a perfect representation of the label sheet, but is close enough for me, If I were to do multiple sheets, I'd expect some drift. What is right for you may also depend on the capabilities of your printer, but it is a start for you.
    Give this a name and it will appear in the Other/Custom label group, for you to use when you wish. You can now use the label wizard to print an indivdual label in a position of your choosing, print a whole sheet or create a new document of labels. I tend to use the last option (it just creates a table of the correct proportions in a new doc) then use it as a normal table document.

    Come on people, it's not difficult: lose means to be unable to find, loose means not being fixed in place. So if you have a hole in your pocket you might lose your loose change.

    So so typical.

    Just came off a 2 week mis delivery and today I get post from 4 doors down!

    Why does this always happen. I have done mis deliveries for the last 2 years and only once did I ever have to report one.
    The art is not in making money,
    but in keeping it!!!

    has anyone else had problems with holidays disappearing after being logged? I entered my holidays in January when I booked them (holiday dates are next week and the week after), I checked they had appeared - no problem. In March I entered a week in May and I could see the holidays for July/August were still there. Yesterday I received a posting pack for next week, so I logged in and lo and behold no holiday is showing . I've emailed them but no answer so far.
