    Just seen on the OS that five fans will be selected to have their pre-ordered shirts delivered by one of the players. Got me thinking , and I imagine that Conor Clifford will be 'slightly late' and then will knock 'just above the letterbox' using 'two hands'. Any ideas for other delivery...

  5. Positive Customer Relations

On his rounds he delivers to a house where the same people have lived for 20-odd years. As he walks up the path the lady of the house comes out and asks him to come in for a moment...

    I spent the weekend around Little Venice and thought it might be an idea to take the kids to London Zoo. I can honestly say I have never seen such a lazy bunch of animals in my life (apart from some of the monkeys and the otters) and the penguin enclosure looked like a low budget Wickes water...
