    Well done. you have now posted 2 threads on RM.
    So what do you define as a backlog?
  • The report came from Royal Mail themselves so it's THEIR definition.

    So all issues pertaining to Royal Mail should go in one thread ??
    is this a rule ?
    Are you sure ?
  • Correction:
    the backlog report came from "from speaking to some of the workers at the sorting office and the local postman"

    and its a backlog of what?
    Given you appear to have recovered from a coma and just realised the penny black isnt used any more.
    November is always a tough month in RM.
  • No backlog at our Delivery Office. Must be just your parcels.
