What would you like to see.....

Post by viking »

Wouldnt you all just love to see Dave Ward and Billy Hayes out on a delivery in this hot weather. Just think, a bit of lapsing first then their own unspecified delivery where there are no toilets, no shade and nowhere to get a cold drink! How long do you reckon it would be before they were found on the side of the road melted into a big blob of useless ........! : :left:

You forget to mention the 60 mins sorting, and then the 90 mins prepping and bagging up, and then the cycle ride out. I doubt that the two chubby blobs could get up for a 6am start even! I suppose either of them have been out of bed before 8am for years. The following smiley shows their typical day :cuppa

I just don't know how they can tell us in one breath, "stay out of the sun between 11 and 3, cover up and use suncream" etc then make us work longer hours outside during the hottest part of the day. If I wore trousers and long sleeved items on my walk, I'd pass out!

I've been wearing shorts for a month now and today was unbearably hot for me. I wouldn't mind, but I'm working in a notoriously cold area :chuckle

Don't start him off again April, think he should change his name to Albert Steptoe Image
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
