I pulled out 3 frame missorts while on my walk this morning. Would think that I mis-deliver around 2 or 3 times a month? Obviously not on purpose but things like letters sticking together and the good old brain fade i.e. every house then miss ONE then every house like you say above its a bugger!

I hate doing the autopilot shuffle as I call it. Enter a property because they get mail nearly every day, then try and sneak out when you relaise you don't have anything for them.

it all depends how many pints ive had the night before

It's hard to tell, sometimes you don't realise you've done it. If I do overtime on an unfamiliar walk, I probably misdeliver once every single time. If I'm on a regular walk, I probably misdeliver once or twice a week - though again, as I am usually on a different walk every week, I'm at a disadvantage. That is to say that I knowingly misdeliver as often as that - for all I know I could be misdelivering every letter. I've never actually had a complaint levelled against me regarding misdelivery so it shows that the majority of people are at most understanding and at least begrudgingly tolerant.

I don't sneak out, I always seem to have a tourettes moment and bollock myself.

[Spedley]

I'd say I do on average 1 letter per day or 0.05%

at least oncea day but more so now that we have gone park and loop

It's when I get an occasional street of consecutive numbers in among the streets of every other number that throws me off.

Agree with that one, one moment your counting 2,4,6,8 and then it's 1,2,3,4

The other one that buggers me up is some streets having a 13 and some not, and then there's the A, B's and C's

I have one in particular.
They are two adjoining identical semi-detached council houses..on the corner of a street.
One is x avenue and the other is y avenue....and they are both number 18.
If any council planners are looking in it may have seemed funny to you at the time but the joke is wearing thin.
