They are for the outward journey..... as it stands at the moment I'm not coming home. dry.gif
Does anybody know whether they actually issue advance tickets for Sunday?
If they come on tomorrow for the Monday I'll get them rather than take the chance.

It's a question of whether to dare let Monday ones go in the hopes of Sunday's appearing later....

Most people in this building are not (obviously) but it made for a much quieter drive into work today and a few departments are closed, including Transport.

Very little mention of the industrial action on here today but am surrounded by angry people on both sides of the argument. Am keeping my head down and staying out of it! No doubt will go home and wheel my un-emptied bin back to its usual place until next week.

You may be lucky - our bins were emptied as usual. Well, at least - a recent new system has apparently rendered our collections hit and miss. So maybe better than usual !

Glad yours were emptied though. party1.gif
