Being a postman / woman ?

Post by somerset »

I joined Royal Mail to be a postie and deliver letters and packets with stamps on etc. To make people happy when i got to there door. " Thanks postie , have a good day "
Now if i had wanted to deliver all this junk D2Ds i would have looked in the evening paper for a job
Now all you get is greif ! " Sling it all in the green bin "
Does anyone on here remember the days we had milkmen? The cling ,cling , as the bottles rested on your doorstep. Time to get up.
They have gone now.
And i think we are next ?
