The 2008 Key Customer Update from Royal Mail has provoked some interest from political commentators, including Mark Pack. One passage states
Within the next 5 years, by the end of 2010, we want to have identified all significant sources of water leaks within site boundaries and taken steps to mitigate them.
and
Within the next ten years, by the end of 2015 we want to recycle all water that we use outside of normal personal use.
This seems to defy the laws of mathematics
Another phrase that I can’t quite get my head around is:
We have decided to re-phase the deployment of Walk Sequencing so as to better align all our programme activities. This will ensure the right technical, operational and deployment approaches are in place, to enable a smooth and effective migration, where the changes are embedded and sustained.
Perhaps we should encourage the wordsmiths to get out on the streets in Headington and deliver some parcels before 9.00 am?!
