Today: The sun shone and all looked full, fresh, and majestic. Spring in all its glory.

Having worked super hard yesterday on the more difficult sections of the delivery today was easier. Enjoyed the company of a colleague Aiden for the third day, much laughter over what we might like to say to customers.

No longer delivering to Royal Arch Court in the new revisions, so no more selfies in the mirrored lift. Managed to catch a more enigmatic selfie in the hard core Suffolk Square lift, one of our new delivery areas.

Pleased that the week was over, been challenging managing all the new sorting and areas to deliver too, but also quite stimulating. Looking forward to becoming familiar with new favourite moments and sights.

Today: A damp start, spotted this beautiful snail making the most of the conditions. The sun came out later and put a spring in my step, spring is very firmly here now.

My last day before a weeks holiday, cleared the delivery frame before the chaos of all the changes coming in next week. Not sure how we will achieve the newer, larger walks but trying, and largely managing, to not worry.

Today: A slightly overcast start, which lifted into skin warming Sun mid morning. Gradually the trees are turning green, new leaves unfurling and trees filled with pink blossom.

An achievable day with much talk about the upcoming amendments/additions to the walks and the pay offers from Royal Mail. The best possible weather to be doing our job in. Happy Postie.

Today: Strong sun and seductive shadows. One of my favourite times of the year. Back after the Easter break, worked hard to catch up with the undelivered from Saturday. Kelly away so worked with a different colleague Mark. Great to be back on the streets of NR2.

Today: Another sunny spring day, pink and red are the colours that catch my eyes. The magnificent magnolia at xx Mount Pleasant is again in full bloom.

Delivering flowers and parcels galore, a struggle to find things in van, since so Easter busy. Yet again, not enough time to complete the walk, so mail returned to delivery office.

Today: A blast of sunshine and a host of colourful blooms. Delivering yellow enveloped Easter greetings, Nature magazines and pink polling cards. Great to be back working with Kelly again after her absence and my couple of days of leave.

Still struggling to quite clear the backlog of last weeks busyness. Hopefully tomorrow we will have the time to finally deliver all on the frame.

Today: Magnolia’s are starting to unfurl and several blossom trees on the delivery now in full bloom.

Double pre on walk 211. Stimulating to be doing different but another hard day in which I have to push hard to get everything delivered. Dis heartened by the knowledge of all the mail that didn’t get delivered on the other half of the walk.

Warmer and less damp.

Please to connect together a customer that my husband works with, who I have chatted to out of work but hadn’t realised was this customer. I seem to recognise people by their houses and doorways and find it hard to recognise people when away from work.
