If one of these bands snapped when bundling up and hit you in the eye (I know ones that snap and hit your hand hurt like a SOB) and did permanent damage, RM could find themselves with an expensive lawsuit on their hands?

Cue wearing safety glasses when tying up in future. :thumbup

S6 Stroller wrote:I have no idea why RM even bother with the small ones. They're not fit for purpose. They snap and if you manage to get one round a bundle, they're so tight they f*ck up the letters. False economy. People throw them away because they're sh*t. Big rubber bands tend to be retained (by anyone with a brain) and are reused, over and over. I have a bag of them that I have been reusing for 4-5 months.
Ever considered smaller bundles ... perhaps RM are trying to tell you something ?

Ha Ha Ha, wouldn`t mess with that creepy pale skinned f`er myself, I`ve just grizzled my hand carrying tray`s to my fitting!, caught it on the wing opposite, tore my skin right off!, spent the next half hour with the Dom looking for a plaster, this job is one big calamity!.... :Sick
