I’ll look for them the next British series I watch that has some action in a small shop. You don’t actually have post offices there do you? I mean they’re shops with a designated postal store.

I didn’t phrase that rightly, I’m sure, but here, the postal service only sells things relating to the postal service. There, it seems the shops have one section for the postal service and the rest of the store is other items.

Good Saturday Morning!

Hoping that the trials of the past week are in the rearview mirror, and a relaxing weekend is on tap for all!

Nice start on the Wordle front...

Wordle 749 3/6

⬛🟩⬛⬛🟩
⬛🟩⬛🟩🟩
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

(In the golf analog, this Birdie on the 17th hole puts me at nine under for the round... ⛳️)

Ah the great post office mess
They used to be in their own buildings, but after the great privatisation fiasco they ended up buried at the back of other shops . Lurking in the corner waiting to attach a stamp to some poor unsuspecting soul and send you on a magical mystery tour.
