Today's strike is in the sorting offices, tomorrow's strike is deliveries - so mail will be delivered today, but anything posted will not be sorted. Tomorrow mail will be sorted but not delivered... Apparently management will be making the collections. People have been brought in to deal with the backlog that will be generated, but I think they're being quite careful about actually replacing the people who are striking.0 -

I've just had a chat with my postman who told me he'd been called a scab by one man who he delivered a parcel to. He explained, like Greenbee did, that there are deliveries today and the man said 'well don't work tomorrow or you will be a scab'. Charming!
Presents I ordered on Tuesday arrived today so i'm happy. Just need DS to go in school one day between now and christmas so I can wrap them!!!
School has phoned and they're sending him some work to do so he's happy (strange child!!).
Right, soaking feet for my friend to come and do a pedicure for me then i'll finish the recycling. I've emptied the kitchen bin since my last post! xx0 -
Afternoon all
Two more stars please Toots, I did all the bedrooms yesterday and I did the bathroom and toilet today, I don't have a separate study but the computer desk has been done.
One load of washing done and draped round indoors, it's raining.
Otherwise, just been pottering round. Poor dog is limping badly today but the vet has said she can have an extra dose of metacam tonight so hopefully that will help.
Off to catch up.0 -
ok, here I am with another excuse
but its a good one honestly!
I've got the tenancy of a lovely flat :j collecting keys this pm and will be moving in asap so I think I'll work out a list that includes decorating, cleaning in the new place and sorting and packing here. Not sure I'll get much done this week as will be writing lists and plans. I'll be back!
hugs to all who need one today... don't throw the string away. You always need string!
