This really is something that gets my goat up as well, nothing worse is there? :evil/mad

:ncfo Bombed with packets again. Mail was heavy, although not quite as bad as usual. Very hectic day and really hot again. Got home and had to rush out, needed my credit card for a payment and couldn't find it. Used cash instead and was in a panic as to what I'd done :hmmmm with it. Cancelled the card when I got back to be on the safe side...... then I found it about half an hour later. :arrrghhh :arrrghhh

Today was a bloody nightmare. Magazines all over the frakking shop. IPS slots were rammed. I hate it when they're so rammed that you have to fight with them just to get the mail out. It feels so undignified.

Just keep on walking down never ending streets

Same here. At least five different ones for the start of next month. Went over and I'm sure I won't be the only one. Recordeds are getting silly again. 17 yesterday, 10 today. Praying we're not lapsing tomorrow to make up the time :pray

^^ Not lapsing on Saturday means we can make up for going over earlier in the week. I also need a bit of spare time on Sat to come back and prep D2ds for the following week. Will only have time to do it on Monday and Tuesday otherwise, which is pushing it.

Luckily, we weren't lapsing so got a load of d2ds done and was looking forward to an easyish week. Untill speaking to a mailroom bloke on the way out, who said we've got a some electoral register stuff coming for every house :Boo hoo!
