Vehicle of Historic Interest.

I tend to avoid the PO whenever possible as it seems like the last resting place for "Jobsworth" and the terminal pedantic. Dealing with them makes watching paint dry a positive pleasure.

I had issues with getting my bike into the Historic class, but it wasn't the Post Office that was the problem, it was a jobs worth at DVLA.

Note the resemblance.  The cube shape, the mindless drones...

That says it all mate. Lmao.

Went to my Post Office today (Wood Street, Lytham St Annes) to change my Suzuki GS750's V5 to Historic, and to remove it from SORN. Couldn't have been easier.....mind you the Gentleman who served me told me that he'd recently sold his Suzuki Bandit - and he was sorry that he'd sold it......so he was obviously well versed in the SORN/ Historic update process.

He laughed when I told him the GS is 'just a baby' compared to my 50+ year old Triumphs and he very kindly also wished me good weather for this weekend when I told him I'd be riding a bike again for the first time in 6 years.

10/10 for Service.....but it must be really frustrating standing in line only to find that the PO Staff suffer from 'Elbow and arse disease'......i.e. they don't know their elbow from their arse !

Maybe more formal complaints to the Post Office might be worthwhile !
