We thought we would start this page especially as there are current issues (2009) with regard to the possible closures of local Post offices. A lot of the community are talking about this and many are remembering about how the Post Office was last century. Any content or photographs that we can use
( we simply scan them and you keep the originals ) would be greatly appreciated.
