Today: A return to work after three days holiday. A sunny start to the day, noticing all the new pinks. I caught three reflections, in the lift in Royal Arch court, the lift in Alexandra court and in the corner mirror at the delivery office.
A temporary replacement van as our van is off for repairs after being in an altercation with a wall, whilst I was on holiday. I enjoy the smaller more manoeuvrable van and I am in a sunny mood all day.
Today: A busyness of mothers day parcels and cards. Enjoyed all the different ways people addressed their mother. Jealous of “xxx most wonderful mother xxxx” and intrigued by To Moth. An in joke ? or a distracted writer who forgot the er. Noticing reds and yellows out on delivery. Spring feels here despite the overcast weather.
Today: Blue skied blossom, Newmarket Road: Leaves, Launceston Terrrace: Milk bottles, Harford Manor School: Delivery Montage 14/03/23
More mail and packets that we can deliver in time, having to re-jiggle as we go along, trying to go as fast as possible.
So stressed that, when I ring a customers bell quickly after knocking on the door and they answer with a cheery “oh in a hurry today ?” I feel like shouting “We are always in a f****** hurry”. Manage to laugh politely but the job is not so fun when we feel like we are constantly failing. Not so great for customers either.
The light today is amazing, I love March shadows.
A chillier but drier morning. Delivery office filled with speculation and chat about walk revisions. Also chat about possible “Beast from the East” returning. Possibly prompted by this chat the wind seemed to have a sharper edge to it by the end of the morning.
Noticing all the variety of new growth. Selfie taken in lift in Royal Arch Court.
A damp overcast drizzly morning. Leaves and feathers with glinting rain drops catch my eye.
A lighter Thursday, finishing early.
