Neither snow, rain, heat nor darkness
Last week, the pillar box by my flat was blocked up. I have seen this before, every so often, so while a minor disappointment it was not worthy of comment. This weekend I have been walking around the area, and have found, without really looking for them, three more blocked up pillar boxes, including one on a major road. Significantly, what I haven't found is one I can use to post a letter. I did see a post van, and one of the small red wheely trolleys, so the area hasn't been cut off from the post completely. It just looks as though we have to travel to use it. I wonder how far.
The positive side of the wandering around was a closely-fought tennis match and a country show. I think traditionally this might have been mostly about farming. While there was a farm area there, including a display of sheep-shearing, it took up a lot less space than the funfair.
