    charming indeed

    Surely you don't want us to post all the instances we have had of posties not getting signatures for items supposed to be "signed for"?

    Or posties convicted for stealing valuable items of post?

    why would you need to?
    unlike yourself I know what systems RM use
    A tracked item has no mopre security or value than any other Tracked.
    What they do need is to be delivered via a PDA not card.
    more likely it was easier for the office to use a single van for that coverage.
    In Edinburgh I can assure you the Olympic tickets went out with the normal deliveries today. its an A4 envelope with tickets inside.
    Not the crown jewels.....


    should I add an edit image here?

    Hi Nicka,

    Your ticket gives you the same access as the Olympic Park access tickets. There is a huge barrier around Olympic Park and only ticket holders will be able to enter, as you have a ticket for that day you will have access to Olympic Park for the day. There will also be TV screens around the park so you can watch other sports or go up the tower or just have a break at the concession stand.

    Have a great games day :T

    Do you definitely get access to the olympic park for the whole day even if you only have a morning ticket? I ask because the Olympic Park tickets seem to have time limits: 10.30-1600 or 1600-2100.

    Maybe that's why those heat seeking missiles were being installed...?

    Just as an update, apparently you can enter Olympic Park two hours before your ticket time, but guess you can stay as long as you like afterwards. This is printed on the ticket supposedly although I haven't seen it in person.
  • Does anyone know if you can get inside the Olympic park even if your event is outside the park? i really need to know, thank you

    not without an Olympic Park day pass. Unless your event is at a venue inside Olympic Park, you don't get an Olympic Park day pass included, and you would have to see if there are any day passes for sale for the date(s) you are interested in.

    just to confirm this is true.
