"Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night..."

"... stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds."

Or so they say of the US Mailman. Whereas the sort of chap you pay cash in hand to deliver a couple of boxes of mailshots for you?



Yeah, he's just going to dump all two cardboard boxfulls in the street underneath the postbox if he can't cram it all in and it's looking a bit parky out...

Is "mailshotter" a word you can use in Scrabble?
