Is there something wrong with my monitor or is he really wearing a pink hi-viz?
And cycle gloves?

Without wishing to go all Trinny and Susannah on Sunday morning - aren't there any fashion police left to correct him?

And paper boys don't get breakfast. :nana :nana

When I did a paper round I got £15 a week and it would take me 15 mins (6 evenings a week)... that works out at take home pay of £10 an hour, best paid job I've ever had!!
