No Deliveries Since Thursday

Post by postman_jack »

Hi all

We haven't been out to deliver any mail in our office since Thursday due to the snow down here in South Wales. We did do some parcel turns yesterday and today but the letter mail is way behind.

Any other offices the same?

No, us Gogs hardened to it up here, not like you soft southern types :-p

I drove to the D.O. this morning to collect my post after sending one of the managers a text to ask if any deliveries were going out. As I got there, some guys were loading up for delivery, and I got my post delivered after all :)

And can I just say, my postman is brilliant.

We are hard as nails in our office, I went out and got a whopping £54 & 3 bottles of wine in tips.
All the other localish delivery offices stayed in cos they are wimps lol. And we have bigger rounds than them, if we hadnt gone out we wouldn't have space for another non-delivery day.
