Maybe in terms of live mail but for the last few years straight after Christmas we have got inundated with deferred mail. I think last year the first day back after Xmas we must have had at least 30 Yorks of mail left unsorted and it took us until about a week into the new year to catch up and have a clear office. Also only 3 days to deliver any d2d's that week as they must be done Monday to Friday in my office.
