Due to an error at Bpost, 600 invitations for the mussel festival in Steenhuffel were not sent: "Then we will be left with an enormous mountain of mussels"

The Vriendenkring Bloedgevers Steenhuffel association fears that 600 invitations for their annual mussel festival were not delivered due to a postal error. The invitations were improperly franked by Bpost, leading to many being returned or left at post offices. The association has incurred additional costs to resend some invitations and has filed a complaint with Bpost, which has promised reimbursement. With the festival approaching, they worry about a significant drop in attendance, potentially leaving them with excess mussels. Bpost is investigating the issue and acknowledges the mistake.
