Yeah, saw that on GMTV this morning!!! All down south except one in Scotland and Warrington....how bloody typical is that!!!!

Not on the website above tho,

Saying that I did get post this morning tho, no games and still not got my Matrix Revolutions I ordered on the 8th of Oct!

Typical I don't get the stuff I want but do get letters from the Wazza council telling me they 'forgot' to take my council tax this month and they're going to take it next month instead! (can I say no? tough luck you had your chance!)

The postie has been and gone - no new games, only junk mail !

It was postal strikes that made Richard Branson open his first Virgin record store. Up till that point he had been a mail order operation.

Perhaps we can all go to Reading to collect our packages from Amazon!

I hope you will be very happy together.

Indeed we shall

I have all my stuff delivered to Kent so I guess Kent not so badly affected by the strike.

Thinking about it, the last game i pre-ordered from GAME came on a Saturday morning. Must be our local sorting office being a bit slow.

NEONKNIGHT · 01-11-2003, 12:33

Saturday afternoon and still no games. Annoyed ? You bet I am.

I still haven't got my Matrix Reloaded I ordered from Amazon on the 8th October!
