So you deny asking for a REOC discount?

That won't be from the Royal Mail, it would be from Hitchcocks.

Didn't you read your own post?

And why so rude to our hosts with the Ivory Tower jibe?

Hi there guys----------looking at the title of this thread can we call it a "one-all" and move on ?? Let's agree to disagree, eh ?? Besides, if you continue the theme of my earlier posting and have a look at the General Post Office's charges in relation to the average wage etc. of the day I bet you'll find that the % relationship was about the same then as it is now----remembering that in those days it (the GPO) was a nationalised, Government body with a Crown Minister in the House ( Chris Chataway was one I believe) and enjoyed susbsidies to keep it going. Not trying to score political points but just observing that although the actual numbers are larger than in those days it's the "affordability" that matters. >>>>>>>>>I was about to say "That's my 10 pence worth------------" but the price just went up !!! LoL. Be seeing you ---------

grumpy yes i did ask for reoc dicount not just for myself but the whole membership ,when i was in the suzuki owners club years ago some large suzuki dealers crooks suzuki to name but 1 offered discount of 10 % to suzuki owners club members its a small insentive to a large group of buyers the ivory tower was a tongue in cheek gag (i presume allan is slightly better off than most working class people like myself who scratch a living daily)as i say try reading the thread as it is intended not as a slur but as a comment of this country bleeding the man in the street dry as i said where will it end paul
