Best job I've ever had. The pick-up-in-20minutes-or-the-client-doesnt-pay, saw me once do Harrow Road to Hammersmith Roundabout in 12 minutes. Thats incentive. In fact, my lard ass misses all but the snow. Mind you, Hornets used to pay danger money to anyone on two wheels who was prepared to work in snow then. That was 80 squid just for turning up. Had to keep the big accounts happy you see. Motorbike couriers no-showed in snow. I turned up in cycle-shorts with loads of vaseline on my legs. The wusses of today never face snow-work.
