    Last post from Christmas

    We've just had two Christmas cards delivered today (11th January 2011) one of which was franked 17th December.

    Feel free to provide updates should you get any even later ones trickle in...
    My all-time favourite Dilbert cartoon, this is: BTW, a Dumpster is a brand of skip, I think.

      The Royal Mail Service is much maligned and wrongly so from my experience. In fact our postman is the only person I leave a Christmas box. Certainly wouldn't give one to those waste of space dustmen.

          Back in permie days we had a Christmas bash in February. That was because the MD wanted to attend the bashes of all the subsidiary companies, and there were quite a few, so we had to wait our turn.

          Said MD did like to party, and it was no expense spared, so we didn't complain.

                I think he used to. I've a feeling he got rid of it though.
