But aren't postage oosts to N Ireland the same as all UK postage? Thats what I was told at the post office.

Yes, when using Royal Mail 1st/2nd Class, but due to the length of my parcel it cant be sent by 1st/2nd Class so it would have to go via Standard Parcels.
This is where the rules change with Royal Mail. Standard parcels is mainland UK only, which does not include Channel Islands, Isle Of Man or NI. The cheapest method to non mainland is called 'Global Value', which costs me ?12, but as I offer free UK mainland delivery (which costs me ?6 btw) then I am willing to meet them half way & only charge them the other ?6.

The buyer knows all of this. Its mentioned in my listing TWICE in big, blue, bold capital letters.

You can add Royal Mails stupid rules to my irk too .

Football fixtures. Sheffield Wedneday are playing away at Bournemouth on a Tuesday evening! How is that ever a sensible thing to do. Even getting back to London is almost impossible. A train leaving Bournemouth takes three hours at that time of night and that involves a bus journey.

Square Enix constantly sending me marketing e-mails (I tried the FFXIV beta last year, so they get your e-mail address when you create a SE account). I've used the unsubscribe link provided numerous times, it says successfully unsubscribed every time, yet they still keep spamming me with junk I'm not interested in. SOD OFF.

"Sorry to keep you waiting. Thankyou for holding"

Every 30 seconds. For an hour and twenty minutes.

Gah.

Replacing a set of spotlights in the kitchen only to switch them on a blow all the other lights in my flat.

Ebay.

All my auctions start at 99p, no reserve, no buy it now, so why do people feel the need to message me with things like:

hiya will you do a buy it now m8 for a £5 with free postage

No 'm8', I have multiple watchers so I'll let it run. If I wanted to do a buy it now, I would have in the first place.

'What's the lowest price you'd be willing to sell?' is my favourite eBay question. Do people not understand what eBay is about??!

My current irk-my absolutely bonkers neighbour. Either screaming, crying, swearing or various unidentifiable sounds at random times. I have no idea what the hell is going on.

I have some kind of curse when it comes to neighbours.

LOL I'm not imagining it, honest.

Or is that a crimewatch type reconstruction of my neighbour's behaviour?
