NO it should not be sold, unfortuantly lack of funding and investment have caused the downfall of the Royal Mail, there should be more investment and training of staff to bring it back the service it once was, and it should remain a public service.

we have a lot of problems with our post, never arrives before 3pm, everyother day, get post for neighbours so we then have to go round the street delivering each other mail. They use a lot of temps as they have a recruitment freeze as do all pubic services which means a lot of untrained staff who dont really care if they get it right or not as they only temps.

Not sure if this is good or bad about the current postal service.

In 2002 I moved house.

In 2007 I moved house again, to an address in the same street I lived in prior to my move in 2002.

Six months ago I received a letter at my current address ( from Government department) posted to my address 3 months prior to my move in 2002. Good on the Postie :)). Does that make sense??.

The short answer is " I don't know" .
