There is 2 huge warehouses near to mine.
When I mean huge, 20,000 sqft each with racking 10ft high, 1 meter apart.

Use to courier inbound to them. Royal mail used to send a 7.5t every day just for them. That's on top of the DPD collection.

Must be a Yorkshireman - never put his hand in his pocket!
Will be seeing him at the Scott Trial on 13th.
