Default Plans approved to open Mail Rail 'secret Tube' as ride

Just be grateful that we still have deliveries to everyone's front door,
six days a week, across the whole country, at a standard price. In years
to
come, we'll look back in amazement at that level of service. Most other
countries no longer offer it.


I'd rather cut deliveries down to three or even two a week if it would cut
the
cost of postage.


Sadly it probably wouldn't. And with online shopping such a key part of the
Royal Mail's business there'd be fierce opposition to reducing the speed of
delivery or else a decamp to incompetent couriers.
