It was my first batch delivery today for Move the Masses so I headed over to Tower Court, fortunately on time today. Jenna was on hand to guide me through, as well as regulars Helen and Ed. 6 prescriptions and addresses loaded into Circuit and we were off. Circuit was fab (thanks Rich!) but it does help if you can hear the instructions and your phone doesn't keeping losing GPS signal... Still, I only went wrong once, cycling straight past two drop-offs and having to double-back.

Everyone was pleased to receive their delivery, and my favourite was one lady who opened the door wide and declared "we're not in!" Over an hour and nearly 15km later, all was safely dropped off and paperwork returned to the pharmacy, where the lovely Jenna was waiting patiently to check mine off.

I'd just arrived outside my front door when an urgent broadcast message came through asking for a prescription delivery across town. I signed up, popped inside for sun cream and to use the facilities, then got straight back on the bike and beetled on over to Heworth. I hadn't checked the time, but fortunately I arrived at 13:29 and the pharmacist's lunch finished at 13:30 so all was well. They were waiting for me, and I managed to drop the prescription off to a grateful lady within 45mins of the task being posted. Good work team!

Nearly 15miles and 7 prescriptions, and one beautifully sunny day :o)
