A fun week ahead for me.

Just starting the polling cards, my day off is Thursday and one of the D2Ds is a local brochure/magazine that is good at A5 size but has about 32 pages.

Only just started on the polling cards, 300 taken today and over 400 tomorrow. Just one mech delivery today but stacks of trays of unsorted mail. Very heavy and I haven't even started taking this week's door to doors out yet.
