Are the MC'S going to be back in late boxing day so delivery get the mail or do you go in early on the 27th. Just trying to gauge how much mail we'll get on Friday.

Mail centres usually hold back plenty of flats and junk mail for the day after boxing day.

Who gives a flip?? Can’t be as bad as the last couple of weeks. Pour a glass of wine, other booze is available, and chill out. Merry Noel.

call it deferred or delayed it's a break that is de-served. don't let 'em grind you down on your return...don't become as bitter as 'them'...do not be bullied...do not allow harrassment of ANYONE, please.

I think they were run as Saturday collections so done by collection drivers or whoever normally does them on a Saturday.
