Same arrived yesterday.
Post has been very strange over holiday period, we had none for days and then a big delivery, some neighbours driving to sorting office to collect their own.
I could be post office delay not mmoc.

They were posted last Wednesday. Mine arrived Saturday. Bear in mind that some areas of the country have experienced very bad weather that could affect transit times.

The entry form for the National Rally is included in the wrapper, along with renewal reminders where appropriate.

I haven't received mine yet.
Shall I report the failure to the court of human rights?

I would try the UN. I'm sure they'll be only too willing to assist.

Seriously, mine arrived on Saturday, I'm quite content with that. I'm grateful that a group of largely unpaid volunteers have given us quality content to read.

It's only a magazine, there's far worse things happen than a magazine arriving a few days later than expected.

This morning, BBC Breakfast revealed the results of their Final Posting Dates exercise.

BBC People up and down the UK posted 2nd class and 1st class Christmas cards on the 'Last Posting Date' as advised by Royal Mail.
17th Dec for 2nd Class, 20th for 1st Class. Between them, they posted 390 cards.

Recipients were asked to confirm their card arrival.
Results were:

1sr class.JPG

.
So perhaps the missing Minor Matters will eventually arrive.... :wink:

I received mine just yesterday,
It is quite in keeping with Morris Minor destination planning though and fulfils the requirement of deferred gratification.

I'm sure we're not the only people to cease/reduce sending Christmas and birthday cards. Not only are stamps ridiculously expensive, but envelopes that look as if they may contain birthday cash often don't arrive.

Yes Mike, I’ve cut down on cards and my sister and I have replaced presents with charity donations. I’m of the opinion that we’ve all got what we want now anyway !

My Minor Matters finally arrived yesterday. A good read and some good info. The post does seem somewhat unreliable at present :-?
