Mail Delivery Issues
by Darrah Bird 16 Nov '18

16 Nov '18

Hiya Neighbors! So, I’m sure the post office is swamped, and I’m used to the usual mail issues around here like going a couple days without delivery, things not arriving on time etc. but it seems we haven’t received any of our mail since at the very latest last Saturday. I’m on Collins, and am signed up for informed delivery. Just nothing. I was supposed to have multiple packages and some important mail this week. One package says delivered (but has not been) and two others have been stuck at “out for delivery” since Tuesday and I have seen nothing in my mailbox or around my house. Is anyone else having this seemingly extreme experience? I keep reporting things online as not delivered, but I’m wondering if it would be helpful to call the post office itself? Let me know if you have experience or advice to lend! I’m starting to get desperate as some things are gifts for traveling relatives coming in next week and I’m worried I’ll never get them at this rate. -- Darrah Bird

St. Andrew's Day 2018
by Bruce Robison 16 Nov '18

16 Nov '18

It's our custom over here on Hampton Street to celebrate the Feast Day of our Patron, St. Andrew the Apostle, on the Sunday morning before the Thanksgiving holiday--and that's this Sunday, November 18th. A great day and a fun day for the Parish of St. Andrew indeed! Joining us again this year will be our good friends of the Syria Highlanders. The Pipe and Drum Band will begin (weather permitting) with a brief "prelude" on the front steps of the church around 10:45 or so and then march in with all the rest of us to share in the 11 a.m. service. (If you haven't heard the dazzling echo of a bagpipe chorus in the bright acustic of old St. Andrew's, you really haven't absorbed the full richness of that instrument!) A festive reception and traditional Pittsburgh Cookie Table will follow. All are welcome! -- *Bruce Robison* *Rector, St. Andrew's Church* *Highland Park, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania*

Free Couch!
by Pamela Barentine 16 Nov '18

16 Nov '18

Hi Bob, could you please post this for my son Jonathan? Thanks, Pamela Large, comfortable couch available on the porch of 1118 Portland St. Has some minor wear - chiefly a small hole in one of the seat cushions, which I believe could be easily patched. Just can't fit into the apartment! Photos available upon request. Cheers, JB -- Jonathan Yates Barentine 412.432.8942 <(412)%20432-8942> -- Jonathan Yates Barentine 412.432.8942
