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

Ask them to blur your windows in the street view, seriously, google will do it.
Yes but they'll come in and steal all your mail to do it :nervous :wink:

A postie on his way home from work by the looks of it. This is has to be at least 18mths old too as I've seen this a few times now as friends have shown me this over the past year or so.

I've done it before, been warned (not literally) about it. Didn't know you couldn't, but should have known I shouldn't. Am not so stupid any more, wouldn't carry even one pouch bag that was overweight. However, there are a number of folk in my office who carry two bags on one part of their walk for 'logistical' reasons. Oh well, woe betide them. It's not clever but it saves them crucial minutes.

does it though - having to put it down and pick it up all the time - must be a long dead walk to make that worthwhile.

Without wishing to examine the particular peculiarities of the neuroses that afflict these people, I assume that they must gain something from doing it this way. Whether it's a minute or ten, I'm sure it helps them somehow, and if my office is anything to go by, it's probably to spare them the five-minute walk back to their OWN CAR.

You can carry two if they are 8kg each, or less surely?
