It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

Yes. There was a sheet up on the notice board, whoever wanted one filled their name in and we got the cards a couple of weeks later.

I heard that Makro was going to be opened to the general public, not found anything on the net though.
