Any rural drivers

Post by Fishyfingers »

Just wondered if there were any rural drivers here,i cover 13 duties 5 are semi or full rural i prefer the town rounds for the early finish but it is nice to get out in the country for a change but the biggest pain in the arse are the newspapers sometimes you feel more like a paperboy than a postie ,Saturdays are the worse cos the paper nearly doubles in size.
