Chilled out all day today. Went to mum and dads late on. Found out what some of my ancestors did many moons ago.

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

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

Walk wasn't fully chucked out when I got in. Had to visit every house on one road with some rubbish or other. Did half a walk that wasn't as light as it usually is when I do it. Couldn't be bothered to do any of my d2ds so am doing more than usual tomorrow. Had no specials and haven't had any now for 8 consecutive working days. Am expecting a day soon where I get 3/4 to make up for it.
