Hooray for our Posties
After every election campaign I am always left with a great deal of admiration for our Postmen, what with fighting with all shapes, sizes and positions of letter boxes, who nearly always win by taking the skin off your knuckles, they also have the dreaded dog on guard to put up with. There is the beast that snatches anything that pokes through the letter box, the silent one that waits for the tasty fingertips, and the little ones who throw themselves at the inside of the door and are still barking 15 minutes later. Not to mention negotiating all manner of paths - some of which are surely health and safety hazards, and the stairs - oh! the bloody stairs. So I'd like to say thank-you to the men and women who deliver our mail, and Good Luck in their fight for decent pay. Maybe a suggestion - what about a standard size for letter boxes? And secure post boxes for flats in the entrance lobby?
