£100 for free, for someone who walks in and out of your garden daily anyway sounds ok to me?

You guys are surely joking? £100 is nothing. will be gone and spent within a week, and then for the other 300 + days of the year you'll be thinking 'ffs, got this prick coming in my garden and waking me up' or him leaving your gate open etc.
£100 a month i'd consider it.

He said £50....paused... then said a year and I thought he was going to say a month  He then said £100, I wasnt considering it I just told him Id think about it to get rid of him. Imagine the "Nogzy boys" coming down to my garden to steal the mail, knocking on me door thinking ive got the key

Is this a country wide thing?
The Royal Mail dump a bag of mail at my mum's work every morning for the local Postie to collect on her rounds. They pay fook all for the privilage, I'm going to tell mum to get them to put a box in the car park and charge them for it

Yes Jade I believe so, get your Mum to ring the local sorting office, say the bag is becoming a bit inconvinient or something and hopefully they'll offer to pay for the use of their building.

TBH it is an inconvience at times. If mum has a meeting else where, she can't leave the building till the postie picks it up (mum's way too soft btw, it wouldn't be me !!)

Your Mum needs to get you to do the dirty work and get you to give RM a ring - go get 'em!

My parents have a outside loo that they let the posty leave his bags in (and use if he needs it), doesn't disrupt them at all and they have started paying them for allowing RM to use it as a deposit point.

Deano I did actually mean use the loo if that's what they needed (you know, have a piss or shit - or even both), the "deposit point" comment was only intended as a reference for where the postamns delivery bags were left - nothing else

Yes, of course I know that. But the word 'deposit' and leaving a nasty one

Doesnt a postman come in your garden and leave the gate open everyday,while hes ummmmm delivering mail to you?
So 100 for nothing really isnt it?
Unless your a light sleeper i guess?
The main train track is at the end of my garden and people ask me how do i sleep with the trains..i say what trains? never wake me up?? even though about 10+ trains pass by every night
