After years of searching for decent gloves I found these and they actually work. God send.

Be nice if our employer provided them, rather than us from our own pockets. I find the fingerless gloves useless, and wear a ski glove on one hand to hold the bundle whilst the other one is rammed in my pocket to keep warm when not in use

The holy grail is finding ones that are also waterproof AND not too chunky to do the job (and work with PDA)

Mine came yesterday (through the letterbox by Hermes at half four :thumbup ).

Obviously haven't tested on a PDA yet, but work a dream on my phone's screen, so I'm made up. Thanks again for the endorsement!

If RM were ever to provide gloves, we'd have to split a pair between two posties, and then we would be expected to moonwalk round our deliveries :speak to the hand
