In Yorkshire I've heard they do a 23 hour delivery, take a 2hr break and then start again.

The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

7 hours something, basically they can have you delivering the whole duty time.

The earlier you get out the longer your del span is . In our office wed to sat cdvs never complete and leave mail in office. They always work till time. Tues is the hardest day as you have to take it all out. less indoor prep etc = more walkin = 5hrs PLUS DEL.
