Last Rites

I really should give Last Rites a plug.

Its about the best book I have read about the sad and sorry institution called the Church of England in the last few years.

I won't spoil it for you, but have a look at http://www.LastRites.co.uk

The most loathsome bishop in the Church of England hates it - a so-called progressive who thinks he is left-wing but justifies church homophobia to the hilt. The sort of sickening bastard which makes me glad that I will this year, and in future years, be having a church-free Christmas! So, if he hates the book, then it must be good....

The Royal Mail

Its interesting that this utterly inept organisation has so far, managed to avoid privatisation....yet surely this is one service that is crying out for some competition?

I'm awaiting a parcel. It hasn't as yet, arrived. Yet I can't phone my local delivery office to enquire, because the wankers at the so-called 'Customer service' section can't give me their number, because THEY have to sort it out. But of course, as they are not based locally, how are they to know if it has arrived or not? Everyone knows that the card system this organisation operates doesn't work, but essentially unless you keep the number to hand you have to go round the office to enquire.

That's customer service for you....
