I done a collection on Sunday and collected thousands of cards etc heavy day yesterday but today as always on a Tuesday dead, I've just started a bundle at 26 instead of two and In another road I went from 93 to 29 with no Mail! It's bizarre surely it can't be right??

probably the quietest xmas tuesday I've ever seen, all part of the plan - make you finish early so you get a good twattin' tomorrow and can't complain.

No reason to complain , your finishing time doesn’t change regardless of the workload .

Mail Centre normally gets snowed under with collections and takes a couple of days to catch up.
Our last van arrival was late today so had the latest finish on a Tuesday for some while :thumbdown .

Lucky you having to drive to do specials before 1pm = less delivering bags and handing back more mail
