This is my postman – a very important person in my life. I e-mail a lot but it is the postman who delivers the letters from non-computer-oriented friends, the books I order from Amazon, and all the other small to medium sized parcels that result from my shopping on-line. (we’ll ignore the fact that he also delivers the bills.) Fortunately he is one of life’s good guys and well above both the average postman and certainly head and shoulders above many of the private delivery companies. Some of the latter leave things in the wet by the front door (ignoring a notice about a dry and safe place to leave parcels). As we never use the front door they can be out there for a couple of days.
This is one of our postman’s predecessors – a Wirral postie from about 1912.
