They also said it was going to be quite, it wasn't. Lots of parcels and packets, water rates for every address on 3 bursts on the duty, not impressed for Christmas Eve. And finally 2 d2d's for next week to be complete in only 4 days. Nice finish time of 3pm

Letters and flats very heavy, 3 lots of D2D's and because of the 2 Bank Holidays had to take Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday's, over half the frame (4 out of 7 columns) but packets very light. Overall got done comfortably in time. No idea what to expect tomorrow.

Proves the point nicely that no matter what in this game, there's always someone worse/better off than you! Hope you enjoyed it as much as I did TBT.

Well, Royal Mail sent a clear message to us today.......f**k your new year, suckers. We'll ensure that 2017 will be just as soul destroying, just as morale sapping, as was 2016. If not more so.
Where the hell did all that s**t come from, today?
