Child LabourThere is a special part of Hell I'd like to reserve for those arses that order every single Sunday paper. Do you know how heavy that makes the bundle of papers some poor kid (ie me) has to lug around? Funny how your papers always seemed to get mangled in your letterbox...
I loved my paper round, but, looking back, I was getting paid peanuts to ruin my back and cycle around in the cold and dark. How were you exploited as a child?

Bastard Sunday Times CnutsI rember on my paper round (twas a morning round) we had to be out of the paper shop by 06:00! Also there was a family of cnuts who insisted on having the Times on Sunday Behemoth Edition but had a letter box half the size of everyone else and yes the paper would not fit, being resourcefull I tried:
Jamming it half way : Complained about not knowing it was delivered
Knocking on the door : Complained about being woken up
posting each section separately : Complained about having to put it together
Finaly I just told the newsagent I didn't care and the next sunday I raped the letter box with the nespaper till I was mangled (the papaer not the letter box), told them!
