Was on a duty I've never done today in a part of town I don't know. Took out 18 loops bought back 6. A whole day off to look forward to now :nana :nana :nana :cuppa
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets

Nightmare today, bulk mailing to every house in the area and they where really thin and small too :sad:

Well, when I say nightmare, what I really mean is - I finished on my time and someone else took out the bit that I couldn't do in my time :nana :nana :nana :nana Gotta love the MC for sending them down, not sorted by machine for manual sorting but I suppose as long as they're out of the MC then that's all that matters :chuckle :chuckle

Shite day to say the least! First day on the P+L malarky on my old walk which is unrecognizable due to loads being added to it due to management getting rid of a walk - we did one full walk then about 30 mins of mine! should have seen the gaffers face when we brought it back :funneh

Onwards and upwards!

Not too bad today only 2 trays of WSM, 1 tray of letters, 2 trays of flats off the IPS and 1 bag of pkts. Had a Shin Splint in my right leg as soon as I started out on the delivery which was agony. Cut off one bundle. Someone got murdered on my delivery yesterday.........why do I keep thinking of Hart to Hart? :crazy:

Not to bad really. :hmmmm Only 2 trays of mech and although we cleared to office of flats i still got out really early at 8.30am :shock:

Took it steady all the way round and finished at 13.15 which included a 30 mins breaks so no moans there. :wink:

Only slight issue today was the weather which soaked me cycling in :left:

Once it settled though did it turn out to be a fantastic warm day or what ! :nana
Rows of houses all bearing down on me........I can feel their blue hands touching me.......All these things in all positions.........All these things will one day take control..........

Packets are ALWAYS light on a Monday...............I think it must be the way the MC works, packets pushed to the side to do the mail until someone panics in the middle o the week then they're all sent out :roll:
