I had a very important delivery today and although I wasn't in when it arrived, I set off down the road into town to collect this important package from the collection office*. Published closing time is 1900. I arrived there 18:53 and it was all lights off and closed. I'm prepared to accept the possibility that this is an unusual occurrence and there was good reason behind it, but it isn't the first time it's happened. Surely, the Post Office should honour the published opening hours. I know I'm ranting on here, but I will ask when I go down in the morning to collect my new Hertford Film Club rubber duckies. Perhaps they either forgot, or got confused with the change from Zulu time last weekend... *En route to the collection office I noticed a very shifty-looking gentleman busy doing something with his automobile. I tooted the horn and waved like mad to get his attention because I was so worried in case he was being attacked by the Westmill Sponges. Despite my grave concern for his safety, he pretended that everything was ok. Maybe he was under duress. I hope they've not abducted him, because he may be my only alibi as to what time I went to collect the parcel. I wonder if he reads these forums [:0] [;)]
