Lady behind our local Sub Post Office counter just told me Royal Mail Postmen get £500 of stamps as a Christmas perk - I wonder how many declare this benefit in kind ?

Have they stopped posting the whole streets' letters back into the postbox now, or kicking them under the bench in the sorting office ?

Or have they now stopped employing illegal immigrants to sort and deliver the Royal Mail ? :rolleyes:

I think they mainly concentrate on employing illegals

Oh ... :anerikke: ... I imagine - being loyal servants of the Crown - MOST will use one of the stamps to post letters to HM Revenue & Customs declaring their remaining 499 stamps apiece.

Aye :rolleyes: ... that'll be right!

Spot on dedworth 100% correct. My uncle visited from devon today he is a manager in Royal Mail. He confirmed they got 500 first class stamps.
