You don't take them off, just make sure you don't put too many layers on.

First day today, Thought it was great!

Pretty much did nothing from 6-9, shown a few bits. then out on a round from 9:15 - 12:30, Then home :Very Happy

Uniform ordered, Told it will be here in 3-4 working days.

Now, I asked for a ahem thingy lol, a red clip to push the mail through the door to save my fingers from dogs, I was told they had none :thumbdown Had a few little critters jumping at the letterbox but nothing major.

Roll on tomorrow :nana

Fold your letters so they push through the door easier, will save you getting bitten. Letters don't have to go all the way through either, as long as you can close the flap. If there is a dog chewing the other side I will leave them hanging out though. The dog normally rips them to shreds. It is good fun to feed the dog a letter at a time.

Of course he is............remember the first time you took out a young lady, the initial excitement as the relationship blossoms and a certain "closeness" occurs, sooner or later that nagging doubt enters the equation and you can't stand the sight of her............and who on here hasn't had that experience - well SP115 is at the nothing below the waist stage :chuckle :chuckle :chuckle :chuckle
