Go for the ONE4ALL multi store gift card, it's worth £300. Got mine earlier this year.

All other gifts in the Catalogue are worth less than the gift card.

yes i suppose i am quite proud of my 40 years service,i like to think i have always done my best and have always given my customers a good service tho its hard to do that these days as we are forever being told that the royal mail is no longer a service we are here to make money in other words bugga the public lets just make money hence the iminent part privatisation of the buisness.
i never thought that when i started as a15 year old that i would give the best part of my life to the royal mail,so roll on EVR if it comes along cos i am afraid the body cant take it anymore,the knees have gone,my feet are giving me gip and this bloody lapsing along with the prospect of more door to doors has realy got me down.
still you know what cheers me up ?
when i look at the young ones and i know how long they have to do
that cheers me up :crazy:
