The nemesis of every paperboy.
That and ridiculously small letterboxes. The Mail on Sunday was a popular paper in Westbury, Wiltshire in the mid-90's. Probably still is. |

I did a gazette and herald round. Delivery in the morning, then back again in the evening to collect the cash.  |

I did a bike and basket delivery round for a local hardware shop a la Granville in Open All Hours.
Paid enough to fund my STFC and 10 Cadets habit at the time!

I had a round around the Lawns which was OK.
On Sundays I had a fucking huge round at Coate. There's some enormous houses up there, you don't notice they're there until you have to go off the beaten track. The bag was a bit of a cunt to carry to begin and I had more than one bag at times, but it got batter as the round went on and the bags got lighter. It was a pretty good round really, I enjoyed it.

My round was council estates with all the redtops, the occasional mail/express or even a sport(it always took me longer to deliver that one. I used to laugh at my mate who had to do Hardenhuish Lane/Rowdens Mead, until it came to Christmas tip time!

Yep, Hardenhuish too, a generation later. My mate who had the hard round is Rich Legg's youngest. |

Sky creaming themselves over mourning going to Chelsea as Man U boss, wonder if they'll do the same with Moyes going back to Man U with Sunderland if he doesn't get sacked before.

It's one of those games I would rather neither team won, although be interesting to see Mourinho's excuses after the game? |

I'm with you on this. Would be nice if Chelsea got another |

That's the problem. I'd love to see both teams fail, even if they had Mother Theresa and the Dalai Lama in charge respectively. But because of Jose I think I enjoyed them capitulating a little bit more. |
