Personally I wouldn't miss the Royal Mail if it ceased to exist as it doesn't do anything that couldn't be done without it.

I doubt they get many tips these days. Do you tip the Amazon bloke? Yodel? DPD? Evri? etc.

The only tip I'd give mine if we ever met would be to put the junk mail straight in the recyling bin in the corner to cut out the middleman. They even have to deliver unaddressed flyers these days and the price to post a letter is fast approaching £1.

I can't see than lasting much longer which will be bad news for those living in out of the way places as only they have the universal delivery mandate.

I'll be posting my cards to Scotland much earlier this year. Too far to hand deliver.
