  1. Parcelforce: taking the joy out of online shopping.

      Brilliant! that really sums them up in the most pithy way. My best effort has just been to rename them Parcelfarce!  :P  I totally agree that in a field of high competition they are the most awful of all parcel companies, although local variations do cause different experiences for different people. Yodel are also banned in my house, but the local Hermes crew are top notch.

  2. Why can so many sellers on ebay not be bothered to leave feedback? It's only a small niggle, but maybe I'll be petty and shop elsewhere.

      I agree Pete. I always gently remind sellers that Ebay claims to be a community. I will only leave seller feedback once the seller has left buyer feedback for me. The way I see it, that's the correct order of the transaction. I buy, I receive, I rate the seller. When I'm selling I leave a brief positive feedback for the buyer as soon as they pay.  I wonder if sellers get as many automated emails from Ebay reminding them to leave feedback. I doubt it.

  4. The people of Bowes Drive, Ongar - words fail me. How can a steam engine travelling at 25mph "thunder" past you? Utter nonsense.

      just read the local press article and accompanying blog at http://www.guardian-series.co.uk/news/9764948.ONGAR__Railway_neighbours_to_launch_petition/ Absolutely dumfounding levels of ignorance and nibyism
