Not too bad a day. Plenty of flats and the usual DSA stuff. Not many packets. The sun was shining and the snow has cleared. Took about 4hrs 10mins. Oh nearly forgot.... it's my long weekend, so off to the Legh Arms tonight.

Re: The "How was your day" thread.
Went to bed in the early hours of Saturday morning after my night out and a late night session on the computer. Just over three hours later I get a phone call from the LM asking if I wanted to go in for my own duty. Went in, it was freezing cold Saturday. Mail was heavy ish with plenty of DSA.

Re: The "How was your day" thread.
Really heavy today, lots of letters (including a bulk mailing), lots of flats and lots of packets, it's a good job that volumes are dropping (even the managers in my office have admitted that volumes are up).
