Abstract: I had been involved with farming for most of my life, so I thought I could cope with the early start - though rising at 4 a.m. did seem a little extreme -"Early Bird" is a tongue-in-cheek tale based on the author's fifteen-year stint as a postman. By turns humorous and disrespectful, the author takes us on a journey into the world of Royal Mail - introducing us to the eccentricities of its arcane working practices, its employees, its customers and their dogs.Prior to his employment as a postman, the author was already an Early Bird. Throughout this book he brings us delightful yarns of his past life as a market gardener/farmer and other country cameos.The story starts one dark, August morning at 4a.m.
