You lot are the best, most participative and imaginative readership I have seen on the Internet. And even though you may not be the biggest or most famous reader base out there, I wouldn't trade you for any other!

Hello, darlings!

Well, after refusing to leave for an extra month or so (for which we were all very grateful, I'm sure) it appears we may finally be bidding summer good-bye for another year. Days are getting chillier and I've certainly had to dig into my closet and take out a warmer jacket or two. It's nothing too worrisome yet, but knowing British weather, better safe than sorry!

Hello, my dears!

Well, the last post (where we talked about why networking was important when setting out to do self employed courier driver jobs) certainly went over a treat. So much so, in fact, that I have decided to make this the theme for the entire month of September!

Hello, dears!

Well, summer is now over and it's time to get back to work. I'm trying to get back into 'work mode' myself after a lovely couple of weeks in sunny Spain – not to mention getting reacquainted with the, erm, lovely British weather...

What Courier Jobs Are On Your Bucket List?

Posted by Gertie on 05-Aug-2016 13:00:54

Hello, my dears!

First of all, please excuse me if I seem a little less peppy and enthusiastic this week, or indeed this month. The caf has been so busy that I find myself getting home extremely tired and in no mood to do much of anything, let alone write about courier jobs. But I am making the effort tonight because I love you all to pieces, and I know you'll be expecting a post. It's not fair to let you down just because of my own selfishness!
