A plea from France

I received the following from an English woman transplanted to Paris (though "there is a thief at english post office" sounds like classical foreigner's English to me).

"can't do amazon uk you know because there is a thief at english post office who steals everything, from amazon uk books (repeatedly) to boys' anoraks forgotten at her house and returned by my godmother to birthday presents sent by my sister to books sent to my office. only things from england to france get lost, not vice versa"

Do you have similar fascinating international postal service stories? Please feel free to share them, and let us also hope that english post office returns her shift key to her soon.
