Hells bells! After all the complaining they still send post to people in the wrong town!
I’m sure there a lot of quality people at Woolworths that would do a better job of delivering the post. (God bless them. I hope it works out).
There are no words in my lexicon. Royal Mail is a law unto itself and has no shame. Apparently Monkeys are smart enough to know what street they are in. I dont know what its coming to really.

Dear Sir
Last week, when I was overseas, I received the post of Mr and Mrs John Y*****ll, 10 W*****r D*******, Stockport.
As you well know from your own memory and the tens of times I’ve already had to write to you, my address is 10 ******** *******, Macclesfield and I have my post redirected, at least, most of it gets redirected, some of it not – sort-of, ad-hoc and random really.
The only relevant address details on this particular midelivered letter were the fact that both the Y*****ll’s and I live at a house no. 10 and the first 2 letters of the postcode.
True, there is a vague similarity in our last names and I do have an uncle John – though he lives in Swindon, not Stockport – both words beginning with S of course.
I recall very clearly a written dialogue which was replied to where I explained to Royal Mail what would happen the next time I received the post of another intended recipient.
I stated that I will expect a manager from your company to come to my house by prior appointment to collect the misdelivered mail.
I’m now adding to that requirement the unedited completion of the remainder of the information I am entitled to under the terms of the Data Protection Act. Not the breach of UK law and ‘effort’ ms Hazel *unawad*n* sent.
In the mean time, I will write to the intended recipient of the document I am holding for them and notify them as to why I have not forwarded their post with the advice for them to contact you about the matter.
I will not be providing them with my address and you will not either.
In the mean time, while you think about how to handle this, please enjoy this video of monkeys working in a Japanese Tavern.

If you ever have the drive to improve your delivery service you could possibly take the same approach. Apparently these very capable monkeys work for bananas, they are not members of unions, never strike and will give you no reason to be fightened of them.
As I don’t anticipate hearing from you before I go away for Christmas, may I take this opportunity to wish you ‘happy holidays’ and a more profitable, less problematic New Year.
Yours faithfully.
Kevin Yeandel
