I did do some part-time work in the warehouse of a courier company a few years ago.  Let's just say that with the amount packages that go through such places and with the slavedriver mentality of some managements, I'm sometimes astonished that so many parcels get through intact.

Marc,

I will ring you. The tubing is 5mm thick wall, how did they manage to crush that?

[Alex Gardiner]

All sorted. Replacements on their way. That's it for me - See you all in a fortnight!

[marc]

[Davew]

nowt wrong with fishing poles. Chucked my extender into the back of my garage today that lasted five weeks before it was worn out.
