Cal - the evil Royal mail fucked your cd!

Apparently I just got an envelope saying "sincear (sp?) appologies" and it said that the item had been lost or damaged - there is a case for it, but no CD.

I bet they stole it to listen to in the post office

Fuckers.

I once received a letter that had been posted 30 yrs previous. It was like a love letter between 2 women (friendly not lesbian way). The lady to whom it was addressed lived in my house years ago. It was all rather spooky. I got fame by being pictured on the front page of the local.

I still get letters for the bloke who use to live here previously. Alot of them seem to be for a security company he set up.
Funny thing is that when I was clearing out all the old gear left here, in one of the kitchen drawers I found two post office fabric money bags (hmmmm :/) and 2 thick wire cables used for bypassing the 'leccy meter.

Ever give them any use? Or does that go in the 'ever done anything...' section.
Posted by jlittle, 14:35, 5th November 2003:
 
Did you continue to bypass the meter?
Posted by Sul, 14:54, 5th November 2003:
 
Nah. I wouldnt know where to get the crimps from to put it back together if the 'leccy man ever wants to come round.
