It's unusual for the chaps in the stores at Rimmers to drop the ball, however these are extraordinary times, and perhaps we should cut people a little slack.

Drop drivers or Mr White van man to give them a proper name are working hard. I was Mr White van man and I delivered to Via-Tech in South Shields 6 days a week, I once had a breakdown on the A66 and waited for a few hours, the recovery truck had to carry my van and load to Via-Tech to unload. I got home at 10.30PM from a 6AM start, it's the delivery drivers that are keeping the retail world going right now, I salute each and every one of them.
