New Year's Day

[cobrakai]

Has it been announced what’s happening yet?

[Coffee lover]

No o believe on Thursday but it would not surprise me if we have to work it

[Shirtbuttons]

Game on, we have to work it. First time RM have delivered on 1st January for decades. Does anyone know the last time we delivered on 1st January? Never in my 36 years but there’s always a first.

There will be a requirement to deliver covid test kits (lots of them)

That is how they got us for boxing day last year. (which was a saturday)

There are no collections on new years day but there are on new years eve and these will need to be processed in MC’s and delivered on new years day.

If that doesnt happen then those kits will sit for 2 or 3 days

On Monday, the ordering of lateral flow test kits from the government website was also temporarily suspended - again due to high demand - while members of the public complained of waiting for hours in online queues for the chance to book a Covid vaccine appointment.

Downing Street said ministers were working with Royal Mail and Amazon to ensure more lateral flow tests can be delivered.
