There is an article in todays mirror saying the regulator no longer sees the need for Saturday deliveries - of course at the moment it is law and we have to abide by it.

Postwatch on the other hand say it is law and they see no reason to change the way things are.

Lets see who wins - I'm betting on 1 in 6 losing their job any time soon!!!!!

You're right it would be a lot of job losses but perhaps I overdid it a bit - it wouldn't be exactly one in 6 but there would be very considerable scope for redundancies.
