We've got a 67 year old on delivery. He's on one of the generally acknowledged "big" deliveries and yet usually one of the first back.

It can't be the three wise men who also get an invite to the HMRC Christmas party

One guy in our office is 70 and still working. He's a bit passed it now bless him, he ain't slow or anything but there's missorts all over the place when he's prepped; letters, packets the lot. Tried to deliver an oversized to the wrong street last time I worked with him :chuckle

Lovely guy though, he's a character. Have to say I hope I still ain't working at 70 though!
