I've been sat at home all day for medication delivery and they've "attempted delivery" no card, just an app update. Apparently driver takes parcels home so can't get from depot? Paid special delivery. Nonsense!
Thanks to the @arriva_mk bus driver (number 8) who just soaked me by driving through a puddle that could have been easily avoided!
Looking forward to a wet day in work 😀

Ban it all.

This is a good idea and the government should implement it.
It will save lives and cost next to nothing.
