Have they not thought that maybe some people may actually want their copy? Instead of all the moaning, creating petitions and farcebook pages about it, why don't people just either chuck it in the bin or put it in an envelope and send it back to The Sun without a stamp on it?

And before I get the whole "do you not know what was printed years ago" flaming, I've never read it in my life. I don't read newspapers at all. And in case the "Hillsborough" comments are thrown at me too, don't bother! I lost a mate there, nearly lost my partner at the time and looked after some of those that were injured.

Life is short enough as it is, without getting so wound up over a bloody newspaper! The same amount will be printed whether or not the postmen decide to deliver it or not.

I'm pretty sure you can't tell the postman not to deliver post. Wouldn't he be accused or dereliction of duty?

I'd suggest just sticking them in the nearest post box, or returning them back to the sender like Wench said.

I had a copy of this rag delivered with my post today.
I've folded it and put it in a standard DL envelope and addressed it to:
The Sun
3 Thomas More Square
LONDON
E98 1XY
No stamp, of course.

Good move Chris. I do that with any bulky junk mail. Including a small sheet of 1/4" mild steel plate would bump up the cost a bit. grin grin
