Add the cost of petrol to that plus the hassle from people who wanted to know why the street next to theirs had their delivery the day before (or even earlier that evening), mad dogs which try to bite your hand off when you attempt to put a note through the door, having to go during the day to offices and factories, and finding a lot of demolished property (hadn't existed for years but no previous deliverer had reported the fact) and newly built property where they hadn't been allocated a copy................you could say it was a bit of a challenge. Oh, and shoe leather too. lol

We had terraced streets but they were garden fronted with steps up (anything between half a dozen and a dozen or more) so we had to come down one lot and then up the next one etc. That's probably why it took much longer.
NOT WORTH THE TIME OR HASSLE FOR THE PITTANCE THEY PAY.
