In general its been the busiest week on a whole I have done for while and since I had a accident on duty last sat have aimed not to do any ot that meant I have cut off every day including Saturday (which I calculated wrong and still went over by 1hr) thank god we had no D2D in our office.

Monday was better than usual, but I suppose everything will catch up through the week.

Back end of last week and this week has been crazy, got 7 bag drops and every bag has been rammed well over 16kg, this is all due to the back log from all the strikes, up and down the country, I know we have to strike but,we are also paying a big price for it.. :cry

Tuesday was quite I was told. Wednesday was busy, loads of flats including Sky mags, but most seemed to cope. Today we had everything thrown at us, DSA flats, including more Sky mags, but strangely quiet on the packets.
