His wife has left him, taking their two children and the dog, and his efforts at speed-dating with a woman with a bad stutter, leave much to be desired. He does his back in when he slips on a fish-and-chip carton, making his round more painful. He decides that he must get away to the sunnier climes of Greece; to this end he opens some of the letters addressed to wealthier areas on his round and steals any money he finds in them, which leads to another postal carrier being suspected. He is spotted by Damien, a 15-year-old school truant, who is illiterate yet canny enough to know what Wayne is doing and get himself cut in on the scam. Wayne derives some positive in helping the boy learn to read, but their friendship is considered unhealthy by some, and all the time Wayne is feeling more and more guilty about his actions. Will he ever make it to Greece? Written by don @ minifie-1 See less
