Special Delivery

Unfair discrimination - that's what it is. No doubt about it. What can I do though - unfortunately it's not illegal to have one's post severely delayed because the postman's too lazy to ring the doorbell. And this is not just because it's the festive season - even in the height of summer we got post stamped by the men at the post office saying that they were unable to deliver because they couldn't get in - never mind the fact that there's a LETTERBOX in the front door and one of the postmen appears to know what it's for.
Now I could understand them being nervous if Mister Squeaky had got out and savaged one of them a bit - after all giant rubber goth bat bites are not pleasant at the best of times and if he was really vexed (like he might be if his post was late), well who knows what he might do - but I don't think it would involve torn trousers like most things that upset the posties.
So I suppose I'd better think about moving to Greendale where Postman Pat always delivers (eventually) despite the drawback of having your letters slightly warm, damp and smelling of cat...
