The post to my house is not the most reliable so they still have not appeared yet, still waiting in anticipation. |
One missing set is unfortunate, two is unacceptable! I'll try a third time, let us know if they all arrive at once!

Still waiting....
It just occurred to me that still no stickers
Yes we have no stickers, we have no stickers today (or yesterday or even before that)
Feeling deprived (or maybe depraved)  |

Something is very wrong if three sets have all gone astray?

I am about to eat humble pie
the digits on my house number as submitted on my email are reversed, all my fault, typing too quick 
I don't think that house number exists
Sorry and never mind |

 , but you would expect the Royal Mail to be able to fathom that out surely!
Email me the correct address and I'll try one last time

I'm sure there's a sub-section of a sub-section of a sub-section of one of the rules which says that providing false information is punishable by public flogging and a session in the dunk tank

A few years ago, I had a very good postman who would not only recognise my family members, but could also put his hand into his bag and straight onto mail for the correct address at least half a mile from home.
Wouldn't it be great if that was the norm, rather than the exception?

The flogging I could maybe accept depending on who was gently applying the whip.
As for the drunk tank, with my finances and recent redundancy then that will have to wait |

there is no-one else in the county with our surname so they could have worked it out |

Very poor isn't it? They must have got to the local sorting office so it wouldn't take much intelligence to work out what the error in the address was.
I've just popped another in the post, why not give your local office a ring and ask what happened to the others or are they in Royal Mail vans!

Be careful when applying your stickers lads, i had a tiny bit of grit on the bit of kitchen roll i was using to chase the bubbled out and it left a scratch  |

The print is quite delicate. If it's really bad drop me an email and I'll send a replacement.

Thanks |
