Hiya.
Have been talked into coming here by a very good friend. Admittedly, it's not a place i want to be right now, but i just can't seem to keep away.
To explain the above, I'm an ex postman who is currently in the middle of an ET, with my case due to be heard in ..soon. (sorry, being careful here)
I absolutely loved my job, and i miss it. And i miss my mates and i miss being a delivery postman. I know it's easy to join in with all the banter about how shite RM is, because it is shite, but, for me, I miss it. Or more I miss the Esprit de Corp we have as postal workers, or for me, had.
Not a very happy intro, sorry. I'll get into this, because I tried to kick off a forum last year on CWU York, after the forum on CWU HQ was pulled, and we so need a collective place to blather away, and more importantly pull together all the experience we have.
Right, I'm off to take a peek at what you wing-nuts have been blathering on about that SmokerJim has got me to sign up for.... ;)
Oh, I was, until recently in the YO area but started out in the NN area..way back in 1987-91, so hello to anyone from there!
ANNOUNCEMENT : ALL OF ROYAL MAIL'S EMPLOYMENT POLICIES (AGREEMENTS) AT A GLANCE (Updated 2021)... HERE
ANNOUNCEMENT : PLEASE BE AWARE WE ARE NOT ON FACEBOOK AT ALL!
Now then... hello.

Nice to see you made your way in here, 'arry
and be pleased to know Reverend Al turned me from a true blue Tory Boy, into the bastard lovechild of Degsy Hatton & Red Robbo ( urgh, what an 'orrible image ) - but you helped point me in the right direction, when I started...cheers for that

I don't suppose your mouth bleeds every 28 days, does it?
