That's nothing - we've still got to get past the monthly ritual where the Post Office takes all 7,500 copies and heaves them into the sea....

Simple One, not funny if you don't know anything about the Royal Mail and how it works, then shut up.

I and a lot of people put a lot of effort in to ensure the mail gets there, remember we are the cheapest service in the world, with the best record in the world, ( that's a proven fact )and Sprint is sent out 2nd class not first, and all are not sent out the same day by the printers.

Bet you don't comlain when a cheque drops through your door.

While I am on the rant, give Tony a break, he does a great job putting Sprint together and he has not had a break from it for a year now.

Yes I have had a S**T day at work.

I got my July Sprint on Wednesday.

If the August one comes today I'll have Sprint overload.

I love dogs, just like most posties, can't eat a whole one at once.
Have k****d one over a fence once, but then it did take a liking to my leg.
Sorry if the rant was OTT, had a very bad day in the office, staff spent the day reading EVO & Sprint refused to sort any.
Sorry for delays & thumbed pages

Oi, ColinL, if you don't get one of your posties to deliver my Sprint to me pronto it won't just be my dog biting your leg - I'll get your Chimp to chew on your nuts too. I'm having to read the Watchtower this weekend cos my Sprint hasn't come. Praise Be!

PS Always wondered how poor old half blind Shep got into next door's fish pond. Was that your size ten I picked up with me pooper scooper the next day too! I'll bring it on Saturday.

PPS k****d isn't a swear word, even in Ireland - maybe you meant f****d - yeah that makes sense!

Thought of you reading Watchtower Jigs has made my morning.......perhaps there is a chance you can be saved!!!!!

Colin........I LUV my postie, if he sees me leaving for work he always sorts my post out, even if he's half way down the road!!!!!!!
and to call Simpo ...Simple One......wow, you have no idea what ammo that has given me now!!!!!!!!

Mind you...he'll proably use it to shoot me down in flames

I promised faithfully I wouldn't moan about my lack of Sprint this month........

However.....I still don't have it...

But I'm not moaning....

I'm staying .....

.......no sorry that's a typo.....!!!!!!

Colin,

Would you kindly withdraw your rant and apologise? I'll check back in a couple of days. I expect better from an RO.

Wish on, if you can dish it out, take what comes back like a man.

Grow up and read my second post, if its not enough well, buy me a pint & talk about it.

Jigs, you should know me better, I don't pay them enough to deliver on a Sunday.
