Pricing themselves out of work perhaps?

 

Cost of the first class stamp going upto 60p as they are now allowed to charge what they want.

Free to choose apart from the ones where the trust poked their nose in. Common eel. tope. Bass and sea bream. All restricted.


New for 2016 TAT are the main instigators for the demise of the u k bass charter boat industry, where they went screaming off to parliament and for the first time assisting so called angling gurus set up bass take bans with the e u using rubbish exaggerated info collected by ices from anglers, they must be very proud.

Upgrade, the door has been closed with regards to anglers being linked to the e u superstate and the failed c f p. So TAT will no longer need to pay monies to the EAA anymore as that org is no longer relevant to the u k . Goodbye to the europeon anglers alliance and pathetic restrictions from the e u.

Angling is better than politics, ban politics from angling.

Consumer of bass. where is the evidence that the u k bass stock need angling trust protection. Why won't you work with your peers instead of castigating them. They have the answer.

Recipie's for mullet stew more than welcomed.

Angling sanitation trust and kent and sussex sea anglers org delete's and blocks rsa's alternative opinion on their face book site. Although they claim to rep all.

new for 2014. where is the evidence that the south coast bream stock need the angling trust? Your campaign has no evidence. Why won't you work with your peers, the inshore under tens? As opposed to alienating them? Angling trust failed big time re bait digging, even fish legal attempted to intervene and failed, all for what, nothing.

Looks like the sea angling reps have been coerced by the ifca's to compose sea angling strategy's that the ifca's at some stage will look at drafting into legislation to manage the rsa, because they like wasting tax payers money. That's without asking the rsa btw. You know who you are..

You'll be lucky. Post office contracts for delivery of unaddressed junk mail are very lucrative and they charge a lot less than the price of a stamp.

Ken,

 

Same over here. First class stamp is 47. Bulk mail is as low as 22.

 

Barry,

 

You are correct. Our postal service is sinking in a sea of red. Congress isn't paying much attention to the problems.

(our first class stamps no longer have a "value" printed on them. Once purchased they are good. In fact, they say "forever".

what car could drive from lands end to john o groats to deliver a letter for 60p?

 

be like me and have no friends you know it makes sense :D

Believe NOTHING anyones says or writes unless you witness it yourself and even then your eyes can deceive you

None of this "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" crap it just means i have at least two enemies!

 

There is only one opinion i listen to ,its mine and its ALWAYS right even when its wrong

 

Its far easier to curse the darkness than light one candle

Chesters1,

 

Congress in their wisdom says the postal service must deliver through "rain or snow and gloom of night" to every point in the US for 47 cents.

 

The postal service can save ???,???,???.00 by dropping Saturday delivery and go from 6 days a week to 5 days a week. No support to speak of in Congress. Makes no sense whatever??

 

Phone

Edit: come to think of it that may include territories. I really don't know. Wonder how far it is from American Samoa (sp) to NY city? Don't know this either.

PO must be running at a loss just delivering to some of the farms around where I live. I can forsee the day soon where we will "only" get post on a couple of days a week. No problem provided we know the score.

There is BUT one good thing about this!! IF you buy FIRST class stamps (I.E. with the 1st class on them) then even if it goes up to a fiver they are still good as a 1st class stamp and did you KNOW they are as good as currency at ANY post office!! You can swap them back for cash (or used to be able to!??) I personally would not S**T on Royal Mail!! They have cost me LITERALLY thousands of pounds over the years with ebay stuff! I had 34 items go MISSING (Missing means LOST means can be found??) BUT with NO proof of posting (I did have proof of posting, but postmaster forgot to stamp and then would not when they went MISSING) YET the Post Office managed to find TWO of the packages?? I always wonder what happened to the other 32 spot lights!!! AND HOW did they find two?? OUT of 34?? Lying, thieving B*****DS! And I have other proof also, Never seen my pictures ?I'll have to search them out! Like the T***T who stamped his OWN frank on the mail in Bradford sorting office, can be seen doing it on a photo video saved on a phone!

 

Sorry Elton just got me at the WRONG moment!! BACK is starting again!!!

It is to be observed that 'angling' is the name given to fishing by people who can't fish.

If GOD had NOT meant us to go fishing, WHY did he give us arms then??

(If you can't help out someone in need then don't bother my old Dad always said! My grandma put it a LITTLE more, well different! It's like peeing yourself in a black pair of pants she said! It gives you a LOVELY warm feeling but no-one really notices!))

I think the PO is value for money.

 

Only ever had one problem, they did not deliver next day

by 10:00 paid £11 for the service.

 

One quick phone call (answered on the fist ring) and cheque arrived the next day

with refund in full.

i think we already do ,the postman comes at different times so were never sure he's actually been ,strangely in 1913 the boxes were emptied 4 times a day (9 in town) and that was some bloke on a bike or horse :rolleyes:
