Four specials, fourteen recordeds. Nice enough day, finished on time, went to the gym after work. Been a mediocre week, full of packets. Mail has been okay, council tax has started to come in in dregs though.

Not too bad today, looking forward to the DFS monster D2Ds next week that are coming out way like many DOs, their weight is easily going to create more replishment calls which many duties simply do not have the "spare time" to visit their bag drops extra times within contracted hours...

That is if "bag 'n' bike" and trolley OPGs actually use the maximum weight restrictions to their advantage (one bag 11-16Kg, rest <11kg, even less if deliverying to blocks of flats... versus 104Kg gross weight for MkI HCTs).
