More than double the post today, couple of bulk mailings made it really heavy which resulted in much cut offs and loads of OT for those who wanted it.

Woke up thinking I had plenty of time to get ready for work, looked at the clock and realised I had 15 mins to get to work. Set the wrong alarm on my phone :arrrghhh :arrrghhh Only 5 mins late.........so in 9 years I've been late 3 times :angel
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

Wet, Wet oh and WET as well. :wink: Remarkably the RM Stormcoat class 2 did actually keep me perfectly dry and for once I was glad to lug the pouch up the stairs in the blocks of flats on my walk as it did keep me dry for a while. :Very Happy Actually kept most of the mail & packets fairly dry as well. Just wish the darn 'customers' would answer their friggin doors quicker in this weather. :neutral:
