Not sure whether it’s a threat or not, but message received

  1. What sort of threat would you imagine? All I can see is it’s a letter telling you they are doing some works on the fire door as they’ve identified an issue and the letter got damaged somewhere in the system so Royal Mail put it in a bag and successfully delivered it.

    Am I missing something?

  2. A fire safety letter arriving burnt. Hmmmmm.

    I think you may have accidentally stumbled into the first act of a murder-mystery programme.

  3. This letter clearly salvaged from a fire, so fair play to the royal mail for being honest and doing their best to deliver it.

  4. A few months I ordered some of the devil’s lettuce via telegram that gets posted to me.

    The box got slightly torn open during it’s time on the sorting machine and the damaged box (with contents) was delivered to me in a cellophane pouch saying “sorry for our fuck up!”

    Had someone opened the corner of the box that was damaged just a little bit, they’d have seen what I was getting and could’ve fucked me well over. Thanks random postal worker, I owe you one.

  5. Last time I received something like this if was actually a Jehovah’s Witness pamphlet inside. Assumed it was some attempt to trick me into not binning it straight away.

  6. Having worked for RM, there are two main ways this can happen.

    Most common is dickheads setting post boxes alight, frequency increases up to Christmas.

    The second is in sorting machines, but the scorch marks on that seem far too severe.

  7. I had one of these a while back. Instead of the item intended for me it contained someone else’s passport. I’ve wondered what happens when things get mangled in the machine. Does someone sit there with tape like it’s a big jigsaw and then they send it all out to whoever they think it might be for?
