Things I now know about my postman!

We got a new postman a couple of months back...and he's driving me mad!!! I sent my skills assessment of 8 weeks ago, and am still waiting for my result. When I'm not at work I stand looking out of my daughter's bedroom window, watching the postmant!! (I know, I'm SO SAD!!!) He arrives at the corner of our street at about 7.55am, stands there for about 10-15 mins talking on his mobile phone, and smoking a fag! (who is he talking too? Is there a big pile of cigarette buts lying where he stands?!) Now, my old postie used to deliver to our house first on his round, so we'd get our post just before 8am. Now, this new guy leaves us till last, so it's after 9.30am till he gets to ours!! Think he's doing it on purpose!!
Sorry about the rant, I know I must seem really sad obsessing about the postie, but waiting over 8 weeks just for the skills assessment, understandable?

Aw Mags, standing there watching him, waiting, why don't you just pop out and ask him if there's anything for you, if he can't be bothered to look at the stack and get your's out, if there is anything, then lay the Scot's kiss on him......... before he come's round, look for it yourself, but in no time your have a new postie, who hopefully will be better. LOL

2PM! OMG, what would I do waiting till 2pm! I'd probablly go and offer to help him do his round! I did feel sorry for him the other day mind, it was absolutely chucking it down & his was walking at double his normal pace! Makes me glad I have an indoors job!
