I don't think any reputable MHK will vote for him. Key being reputable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(it's on Wednesday - did I tell you already?) Some people are nice. I was going to ask if you could maybe eat the animals.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The post office seemed in disarray too. I got messages that two packages sent from the UK on Wednesday - 48 hour delivery - were in Douglas at 8:40 on Friday. Delivered here 10 o'clock Monday.

As with any business, it's not the name, it's the people who work for them. They are good round here. I do find it odd that the query process seems to be a Facebook group they’ve set up.

And this morning I noticed that the second dose is 10 weeks later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The couriers try and help but they seem to be the object of people’s ire, messages all day and night and a total lack of support from management plus ultra crap systems. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a good idea - when I am looking for parcels from them, they can be 'Due for delivery today'...but their system says they are sat in Bolton. From experience, that usually means the parcel will be here today or tomorrow. My guess is that they are going by someone last scanning a container before it heads to Heysham and not scanning it here.

They shifted AZ interval, to 10 weeks, 3 weeks ago, pfizer last week. The paperwork says “up to 10 weeks” but they’re rigid in a “computer it says no way”. There is no discretion. 111 bookers can’t over ride. The computer sets the dates. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My daughter and gs stopped by in the car to drop off my card.They live a stone's throw away from me, but came in the car to make sure my gs stayed socially distanced. He's a very affectionate, huggy little boy so it was the prudent thing to do. They stayed in the car with the windows open while I stood 2M away, aside from when she handed me the card. I wore a mask. Whole visit only lasted five minutes, but it was the highlight of my week. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they’re quarantining some mail - seriously, I suspect they’re leaving it sat there for 48 hours incase early delivery spreads corona. They might start doing that at the other end now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
