Pretty light. :Very Happy

Got half way around and the sky opened with heavy snow. Blizzard stuff for about 30 mins. :shock: I was just getting ready to start back as it was settling bad when it just stopped and the sun came out and it all started to melt. :nana

Not so good for one of our guys though as I later learned he went over a hurt his arm, hospital job. :sad:

Stupidly light today.... I s**t you not my lapsing for 4 small closes was 10 letters! WTF :shock: The annoying thing, as we all know, is that you've still got to walk up & down the whole bloody road just to deliver those few letters! That's when I really miss the old bike. :Boo hoo!

We all know tomorrow willl be heavy. I'm sure we'd like a more balanced weight of work, so why this Stupid Company cannot sort this situation is beyond me....Answers on an unendorsed postcard please. :cuppa

How can yesterday, a walk be the easiest it has been since its Delivery Methods creation several years ago, but need a ~25% cut off today and still go over by ~30mins?
