A Postman's Job.....

We have had a crazy time weather wise in the UK over the last week. All sorts of public transport services have broken down, but then its not surprising - how do you balance the risk of occasional severe weather disruption with the spend on machinery & services that other countries (for whom big winter weather is normal) invest in.

A friend works for the Royal Mail in one of the area offices. Yesterday, Christmas Eve, she got to her local sorting office at 6am to take a post bag and go delivering letters so people could get the cards that had made it through the transport system to their homes in time. Now that’s what I call service!

All the more impressive from a work force in unhappy circumstances.
