I find that Amazon deliveries only become trackable when they're about 8 stops away
-
Why are some deliveries track able and others not?

Whilst I was of course making fun of the wording, there is also an interesting point being made here that cycle lanes are slowing down buses https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/uknews/cycle-lanes-have-slowed-london-bus-journeys-says-transport-minister/ar-AA1RKMlc Guess thete is a balance to be had where one form.of transport isn't penalised by another

I’ve never been offered a choice of who delivers to me from John Lewis. Normally their couriers do ring the bell, but not always. The bad experience with John Lewis was about a year ago when they just left the item sticking out of a recycling box near the front door. It was part of a large order I had made which was broken up unto multiple deliveries. Amazon has got worse in the last 5 months or so. Deliveries used to be trackable for me.

I think that stat is being taken a bit too literally here - no one’s suggesting cyclists are riding down tube tunnels. It’s just a comparison of overall journey volume. Joking aside, the real takeaway is that cycling levels are rising fastest in inner London, which has big implications for congestion, air quality and street design. That’s probably the more useful angle to discuss.

WTF, are people cycling along the tube tracks now, causing delays to tube trains as they have to wait behind that one cyclist taking their time ? How bizarre 😅

I was in the post office yesterday and they were so overwhelmed by parcels, incoming and outgoing, they had to stop accepting Evri returns -

A lovely, new and unused boxed set of 8 Tintin books featuring the classic adventures of Tintin, Snowy, Captain Haddock et al. Perfect condition and would make an ideal Christmas gift. My young son is selling it for only £25 (or a reasonable offer), but you can see it currently retails for £78 on Amazon so grab yourself a total bargain!! Cash on collection from SE15

The problem is not generally with the stores or drivers - who generally are doing the best they can and receive peanuts for each package. (Rumored that Evri will pay only 20-30p to a shop that receives/sends a parcel). The problem is the business model of these courier companies that do not invest in infrastructure or depots, but just outsource everything and set "contractor" drivers impossible targets. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2019/dec/08/christmas-parcel-delivery-drivers-driven-to-the-edge
