All days are heavy with the amount of lapsing we do in our office.

Does your office use the figures to determine lapsing or do they just make it up? Ours is simple, if traffic is below a certain volume then we collapse, if its above we don't. They do come and ask on the odd occasion if a walk needs to be covered, and if we have time we will do it regardless of traffic.

It's not much though, less than 10 minutes collapsing each.
