Packets fairly busy about double normal but letters lighter than a normal Wednesday which was weird as we had double the amount of normal sorters and worked to time.

Very strange day indeed - doing my yearly docket tomorrow.

Humped with parcels and letters. I was going to say I'm dreading tomorrow but really. I can't carry anymore as I wouldn't be able to fit anymore in the stop boxes.

Same amount of artics queuing in the yard this morning as yesterday, but they cleared so hopefully tomorrow will be slightly lighter for everyone. Got a feeling the tracked and SD's will be going through the roof in the next couple of days.
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets
