And if it’s a round full of loops with long drives, cut throughs, flats so you don’t have a clue where your partner....sorry partners are, what then?
I mean if only we all carried some kind of digital device as part of our job that could be utilised to pinpoint our colleagues. And no, I don’t mean a mobile phone.
The day is gonna come when we’re all gonna have to testify.

They really do look like fun! Do they need a postie to test these out in India? Sign me up! Have passport; will travel.
Tiny wheels so they'll ride the bumps up and down a lot and have a very jarring ride. And only 24 mph ish top speed - only good around town, city, and backstreets - not good for ring roads etc. Otherwise they could work for singletons.

The first fundamental problem before anything else is most of the Royal Mail fleet simply cannot accommodate 3 rounds.
My Peugeot can only just fit my round in most days - definitely not 2 - and 3 would be impossible… unless they want me to strap it all the roof ?
(Now there’s a good idea) :management …

Re: 3 in a van 3k delivery points
We have some electric Mercedes with 3 seats that could possibly accommodate 3 jobs in the back but it would be a right mess with parcels. The two passengers have to sit very close together, how lovely will that be when its boiling hot and even better when its pissing downWolf91 wrote: ↑01 Jun 2023, 11:11The first fundamental problem before anything else is most of the Royal Mail fleet simply cannot accommodate 3 rounds.
