A British doctor has taken a new post - stamping letters for tourists in Antarctica.

Dr Helen Joannidi will run the UK's most southerly Post Office on remote Goudier Island where it is -12C and she'll have no central heating, running water or electricity.

The clinical psychologist, 33, from Totterdown, Bristol, wanted a career break.

She said: "You can't really go out. It's freezing and we don't want to scare penguins and stop them mating."

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

I hope the Financial Specialists will be standing around in the coldest bit. She will have as much luck selling to penguins as I get, and probably a more intelligent response.
