Great day, 3 and a quarter hours delivery. Had 7 recorded items and had to pouch 2 off along with another packet, taking up about 10 minutes of knocking/ carding time.

So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets

Very busy Thursday, made up for the easy start for the week. Had a bit of lapsing to do which was a messy job. Had to go through all the redirection, that were not in any order, and sort out those that covered my bit. All in all, not a great day really.

Busy. Just finished in time. Loads of packets, 1 pouched off. 8 recorded items, all delivered. Warm humid day but at least it was dry. Absolutely knackered.

For the third day running i have got home soaking wet, cold ,tired and hungry. Good old devon weather. One customer cheared me up though when he said i looked really cheesed off with it all, i said yes i am then he replied it could be worse, i could be dead! That made me think and yes i suppose he is right...but only just. Got a really heavy thursday to look forward to tomorrow so its not all doom and gloom. Gotta keep smiling for the customer. The bonus is ive only got another 27 years service to do !

Played catch up today after 2 easy days. Plenty of packets after almost none. Still not enough on the IPS. Lapsing tomorrow so will probably finish late. Hope the packets are not too bad, as this will really put a spanner in the works. Weather has been ok, hope that continues until the weekend as I'm off. Looking forward to the Legh Arms on Friday. :chuckle
