Has anyone had anything related to the festive season or the same usual every day leaflets?

No, nothing festive about any of our D2Ds. The only good thing is that we have had only one this week, and it is looking like none at all next week! :Very Happy

Some of our D2D's for the last 2 weeks have been sent back by management :crazy:
Can I take them into my office (outside yard) and conduct a fact finding interview
with a view to suspension over wilful delay :hmmmm

Same here but they're such a pain to put in the frame (plastic bag inside a plastic bag) that I just took them out with me and added them to the letters as I went along.

Salvation Army "plea" letters here too, was extremely relieved that they were not the slippy plastic collection bags that we've had a couple of times this year (irony is that my old job had a project that worked with our local Sally Army to distribute these bags and collect the donations everyday of the week!).
