Quote from: mickO))) on October 12, 2026, 12:18:15 PMAnpost yet again. Ordered 2 items from Japan and whatever genius at anpost got it mistook the Yen value on the package as euro and tried to charge me triple the customs costs. I called them straight away and was asked to send invoices etc. to an email address for review. I did all of this 20 mins after the call which now is 2 and a half weeks ago.

Got a follow up email a week later asking me for everything I had already submitted so I replied saying I sent everything you asked for in my original email to which I got no response. I emailed them last Friday asking when will this be resolved. Got a reply this morning saying the parcel has been sent back to the sender as the date to pay the customs was October 9th.

As if thats not bad enough I called up again to figure out what happens next as the seller is going to  be charged fees in Japan to get the package back and will have to pay to sent it to me again all the costs of everything will be passed on to me. The person on the phone apologised saying the issue was caused by anpost but sorry they don't offer anything for mix ups on packages so all extra costs to get this sent over again are on me.

That's the second package these wankers have sent back since the new customs fees in July also had a Hells one sent back at the end of July which I am still waiting to get resolved.

Fuck An Post. Spent sixty euro a few weeks ago, to ship over some stuff for me to use at NYCC. After a week of the tracking not being updated, apart from "your package will be sent internationally" I go back to the post office, to make sure it's actually left the post office (this happened before). They checked and "Nope, it's gone, just email them for updates"

A day later I get told "owing to an operational error, it's been shipped in the wrong channel, and it will probably be returned to sender. We apologize for the inconvenience". So now I'm hoping it'll arrive before I fly, and stick in my suitcase, and hope they don't pay too much attention. No such luck. Still no clue where it is after I get to NY. I get advised to put a claim in by the An Post guy.

Check the tracking Friday? "We attempted delivery today" FFS. New idiot postman couldn't be assed putting it in the shed like all of his predecessors have done for years, no. So I expect to see another attempt yesterday, let the old man know it's arriving.

Nope. "Your item is being shipped internationally " Again. Useless fucking mongtards.

When you're flying, and it's pissing down with fuck all visibility.

Then, that moment when you break through the top of the clouds, and all you see is blue skies and brilliant sunshine.

They should have done a deal with the Brits, and got Beverly Allitt to be her hospital nurse.

Quote from: John Kimble on September 13, 2026, 06:33:53 PMDunno if it's an exact fit for this thread, but had a good long look at this today while taking a shite. It certainly passed a few mins, in fact the shite had air dried itself by the time the video finished.

I'd be reasonably confident now should the need ever arise. Anyone else here ever successfully land a passenger plane? Is this info reliable?

Take all the time you need boys...





It's like we're living in one big giant simulation (pun intended)...


Is the bit about watching Air Crash Investigation really any different to all these  women going "Since I've watched all the episodes of True Murders, Murderers in Suburbia, Murder This, Murder That, Murder With a Baseball Bat, I know a murderer when I see one, and Person X is clearly innocent!"

It's okay, but the vocals are a big downgrade compared to before.

£10m in his first season...
£218m (net) in his second season. They (Liverpool) sold players for a value of £262m in that same transfer window...

A tad less than £900m  :laugh:

He still spent £450 million last summer. The only time people bring up nett spend is when they're trying to defend their team wasting millions on shit players. You don't get United fans doing it.





Because nothing can help defend "Spend £300 million on the likes of Onana and Sancho, and recoup £87.50 and a bag of Doritos."  :)

So, guilty of 114 charges. That's got to be a suspended transfer ban for the January window in 2036,  right?

We had a customer at work telling us that attack on the Ukrainian train station where Boris Johnson had just left a few minutes early, wasn't a Russian attack at all. It was the Turks, Erdogan wanted to take out Boris for calling him a goat fucker all those years ago, and putting the blame on Putin.  :laugh:

That was 21 years ago tonight. Where the fuck has the time gone.

There used to be, but thankfully Fastway went bust.
