It arrived so long after it had been sent that it seemed pointless reading it, as any info contained could be a week out of date. I had already read it online a week previous.

It was nevertheless the duty of government. And some do not read things online or watch or hear the news.

I don't think I did, unless it looked anything like a TV license frightener which would have gone straight in the bin.

Surprised you didn't number it and put it with all your tv licence reminders up in the attic alongside everything else up there!

You didn't get one. How fortunate you avoided Boris having licked the stamp. :lol:

It was delivered in an unaddressed envelope marked; "This is a vital update from the Government about Coronavirus". Presumably some posties particularly in rural areas and, knowing the contents couldn't be buttocked to deliver all of their allocation. Suggest,for starters, someone checks the ditch that the blond buffoon threatened to throw himself into! Total amount "spaffed" £5.7m.

I've commented elsewhere that if you opt out of unaddressed mail (generally flyers, etc.) then you probably won't have got the info from the government.

IIRC there is a warning to that effect when you opt out making you aware that you may miss out on information that may be important and that you accept that.
