I'm told that he had 300 pieces of mail with this months date on at home so he was quite prolific! :eek:

Hopefully he will be getting prosecuted through the courts as well.0

No link that I could find hon - it's not in the news yet. And probably won't be until they take him to court I imagine, some time hence.
Scary though these stories are for those of us who rely on The Royal Mail...In some ways it makes me feel better!
Whenever a couple of my parcels go missing some kind soul always tells me that my packing must be at fault, but that never makes sense to me given that I take great care, follow the guidelines (and then some!) and pack all my parcels in the same way. Is it just dumb luck that most of them get through?
The parcels being stolen makes more sense to me, but I understand that in the past very few cases were taken to court because of the adverse publicity it generated. I understand that this policy has now been revoked, and we may see quite a spate of court cases as The Royal Mail is seen to clean up its act.Not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted.

Should put a sticker on the back of all of my packages "Caution, contains used pants"
That will stop it getting pinched... wonder what my customers would make of it

Or it might be an incentive to pinch them- well, no reason why posties can't be pervy.steven_garner wrote: »Should put a sticker on the back of all of my packages "Caution, contains used pants"
That will stop it getting pinched... wonder what my customers would make of it This is my opinion. There are many others like it but this is mine:kisses2: Fiancee of the "lovely" DaveAshton :kisses2:I am a professional ebay seller. I work hard at my job, I love my job, if you think it's silly that's your problem not mine.

Its about time they start taking this kind of thing more seriously. Chopping of fingers would be good.0
