Default Dont Forget The Postie

As title states, amongst others in this country the postmen and women get slated for striking over something "outsiders" refuse point blank to understand, but at this time of year these people just take it for granted that their post is delivered every morning by the post people come rain shine or snow so Thankyou guys and girls for bringing my letters (although it was junk) to my door without a gripe or groan

Postmen and women do a great job and to think that its difficult to walk down your road without slipping on your ar@e these people walk 400 - 800 private addresses each morning, schools close, company's send staff home, your post still gets delivered.

well, most of the time I'm happy with our posties, specially the one that walks off in shorts, giggling at our naughty doggie barking for the letters to eat!....but I'm still waiting for the parcel of xmas pressies from my best mate in France....and I ain't had any post this week apart from a bank statement on Monday.

I suppose its better an empty box than one stuffed with junk!
