Yeah, I was just going to state this. I can't believe how they can never get a deal sorted out, and they have a backlog of around 8 million + parcels so oyu definitely would be lucky to get it in time for release. I've already made my plans for getting the game 2 days before release....


I will be pre-ordering Modern Warfare 2 from the same place I pre-ordered OFPHappyR from and got it 2 days early, and that was also during the strike so, WIN!

And just for security measures I will be using UKmail to deliver it not royal mail so it won't get help in the strike :P

Show me where it says they have a back log of 8 million parcel's.

You must login or register to view this content.

Read that.

2 more strike days 22nd and the 23rd of this month. ONLY normal mail affected NOT parcel's.

Effect's of the strike are.......

Limited processing, movement & collection of ordinary mail (if local collections performed by staff at a Mail Centre).
