I also wonder why people queue at the post office (and banks?) WHY? Why not go later, or why not go off for a wander instead of just standing there? It's unusally pensioners and they've got ALL DAY to go to the post office. I don't get it

Oops - meant to say 'usually' not 'unusally' which doesn't make sense. Can anyone tell i'm very bored tonight? I really do need to get a life.

Yes but don't pensioners also hang around? I see them outside the Post Office on a Thursday in big groups blocking the pavement and squandering their pension money on TV stamps and electricity top-up cards.

The post office have stopped selling TV stamps now

The local post mistress also advised me that they were going to stop them selling car tax stamps soon aswell.

Why do they keep changing things like this and making everyone's lives more difficult?

Change is for the good. Embrace change.

You'll be pleased Cadbury changed all those bars to 'CDM with...' then!

Sad - Summer is all but over - it wasn't quite light when I got up this morning

Happy - the house is no longer full of sand

Because the post office take a cut of anything they sell. If you buy direct you get to pay the same price, and the government keep the cut. Clever huh.

There's no need for pensioners to go to the post office. It's much safer for them to have their pensions paid into the bank.
