left all normal parcels and yet again we were 30 mins over......getting f***ing sick of it!
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
Illegitimi non carborundum

Re: The "How was your day" thread.
7 months into the job and discovered one of the houses has a 4 inch wooden plinth running along the front of the driveway yesterday, unfortunately it was my heel striking it as I turned into the drive and went ar$e over t!t, few scrapes and a minor wrist ache but seem quite lucky considering it was a bit of a somersault. Can't understand people having any sort of wooden walkways in this country as they are a death trap.
So all in, crap day at the office.

That's not good. Hope your wrist is better.
Did you report it when you got back as it need s to be noted.

Very light with regards to being so close to christmas.
Never had many parcels although the cards are starting to pick up. Was finished on time and filled the van with petrol.
