Anyone remember when we had time to do stuff when we got home from work?
anyone remember when we worked 6 days a week every week with no wallington no chance to work a day on overtime off because you didnt have one
Yeah, I also remember being home before 11 most days, before 9 on a Saturday, and taking out second deliveries on OT for 2 hours each that usually consisted of less than half a dozen letters.
Let's not pretend the hours worked are better now than they were then.

How old are you Duckins? I do a full duty plus at least an extra hour then go home and do a 4 or 5 mile run. I'll be 65 this year. Pull yourself together!

I find personally that it helps to keep working. It's a killer after each rota week off to get back into it, so I find 2 or 3 days o/t in the middle of the rota week helps me stop seizing up. Saturday I have domestic jobs to do when I get home, and sitting down is a killer- I have to keep going. On weekdays I actually yawn cycling my bike up the school at 3pm. to pick kids up. Legs are stiff on days off too.
What are our chances of not being crippled by retirement age?
