I agree - unless there is a width or weight limit then 600s (which are less than 7.5ton) can go anywhere an ordinary car can go.

It is however not a good advert for RM as other drivers will get frustrated if they are slowed down or have to squeeze past them.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
