Well, if it was the walking man, it wouldn't be before 9.00am, more like, before 9.00pm. Just.

Well it wouldn't be a walker or a P&L pair they haven't finished throwing off by then and sometimes they are still on IPS! We have to send someone out especially to do them.

Why is that KN? Is he getting them late? I get the 9s ready before 7.15 they are so far apart that we need that amount of time to cover them. Sometimes we need two guys. Admittedly they are a pain in the bum but I had one today that they'd paid £27 for :hmmmm

Yes, 9am Special Deliveries have increased 60% in price over the past four years, starting at £11.35 from April 2010, starting at6 £18.18 from April 2014. :shock:
£26.94 is for one weighing between 1kg and 2kg.
