Loads of packets today, york and a half but at least the mail was a bit lighter (and most of the people where in, well, all of them where in but some couldn't be arsed to get out of bed so they have to collect them from the office).

Was hoping for an extremely light day, but no such luck. First letter 9.15 last letter 12.45. Luckily no specials, just plenty of tracked. Felt a bit better than I did on Friday, my P & L partner even bought me a sandwich for breakfast on his way to work. Got him trained well :Very Happy and I refuse to eat out of the canteen anymore. Now off for a week :nana :nana

Bad - My radio broke, so nothing to keep me occupied except my own thoughts, which were mainly what an annoying twat my manager can be.

Good - In a Kwik-Fit on my round, saw a (non-piratical) bloke, with a parrot on his shoulder!

Same over here..............took 15 minutes to do one loop but in that time I was so soaked that I had to change my coat, hat and bag for dry ones that I keep in the van (all cheer for RM stormcoat that wouldn't keep you dry in a light shower).
And as for the packets...............where are they all coming from?? 45 today and only brought back 18 :nervous :chuckle
