Morris Minor Owners Club

Hi All,

I thought that Minor Matters 'normally' arrived the first saturday of the month, but mine seems to have arrived early (as in today)

Due to me being away from home I have the mag sent to my parents place and they have just told me that it arrived today shredded by the Royal mail................................................!

Does anyone know who I can contact in the Club to get a replacement mag?

Cheers

Martin

Martin, give the club office a call, they should be able to sort you out. Contact details here

Why has the postman shredded it though? Did he read the report of the National rally or is he just upset at the removal of "From a woman's angle"?

Perhaps Dale can provide a postmans perspective

they should not be shreading anything.we hold normal items for 3 weeks then send them back to the sender.a recorded item is kept for 1 week.sometimes normal sized letters get eaten by the postcode reading machines as they go through at about 40 mph.if the envelope is not sealed they shread.as minor matters is an a4 flat they are sorted by habd andtherfore should not break.have your parents got a small letterbox,thats usually the cause of breaking the plastic bag or the hungry dog the other side of the door.it is hilarious when you get a dog that eats the mail and people do not learn.ive been telling one familey on my round to get a basket fitted the otherside of the door,do they listen no.hope this gives you some insite into the problems we face

I can see the advertising slogan now:

"Minor Matters - voted a good chew by 9 out 10 dogs who expressed a preference"

Either that or hungry postal delivery operatives! (Have to politically correct these days )

Thanks for the replies.

The plastic wrapper had been ripped/shredded and taped back together and only one page of the mag was left in the wrapper.

BTW - Mum and dad's post-box is a sealed metal thing and the only animal in the house is an elderly cat.

Cheers

Could it have been one of your parents Martin?

Which page? Was it Mug's Matters, did it contain a picture of the clowns at the National or did it refer to the Lancashire branch's naked calendar? If we knew the contents of the page it might give a clue to the motive and hence identify the culprit.

Surely it's the better than light speed delivery that tore it to pieces...

lou i think you are a secret clown fan you keep going on about them

light speed delivery

Not a problem around here more a Slow Hand Luke type of delivery.

Ooooooooopppppps!

Many apologies to all!

My dad got the wrong mag.

It wasn't Matters, but the US Minor Registry Newsletter.
(Perhaps I should of paid my over-due subs for this year! )

I thought MM was early!!!!!!!!!!

As dad said ''can't get the staff''

Minor Matters comes out the 1st Thursday and usually lands on the mat the following Saturday am i.e. 6th September this time.
