After several months of economic doom and gloom,the green shoots of financial recovery seem to be sprouting,these green shoots have come in the form of 4 and 5 d2d's in our office every week! It seems only a short time ago Royal Mail was.........according to some on this site,"ready to pull the plug" on the whole dwindling leaflet market,even the fat Nostradamus(Dave Ward) was predicting it could "end at any time"!
Surely such a dramatic and unheralded turnabout in our business is a strong indication that the good times are back,not just for us but for Britain as a whole! Should we be contacting the Bank of England to tell them the good news,or am i being over optimistic and mistaking this amazing turnabout in our fortunes for something more sinister?

Good times or bad at the top, they'll always be bad times at the bottom.

As they s**t always flows downhill, but sometimes Cryptosporidium bites back, if there is too much floating around.

Re: Recession over?
Most walks in our office have had 2 or 3 lots for weeks now, but this week at least 12 walks have got 5 lots, big bulky f***ers aswell. This is where extended will need to be booked now i think.bunkerland wrote:After several months of economic doom and gloom,the green shoots of financial recovery seem to be sprouting,these green shoots have come in the form of 4 and 5 d2d's in our office every week!
