Morning Belle and Fly :-) <3

A misty start to the day, but since then the lovely sunshine has burnt that away and it is much brighter.
Supposedly 11 degrees and mostly cloudy :-S

Just going to catch a bus to town, to take in my repeat prescription.
Must check whether I have anything to post too.

Our nearest postbox is still taped up with a covering of black polythene with a notice telling us it is not in use, but an automated system is coming soon.
How soon, who knows?
Scan the code to see your nearest postbox.
A lot of people round here don't have the type of phone to do that, so I wonder why this area has been selected now for this new update.

Morning Gwyn <3 :-D

Most of the post boxes around here at Christmas were all taped up in black polythene :-(. You couldn't find a usable box for love nor money, not very well planned :-| These new boxes will also take small packages and there is a separate entrance for those :-0
I have to say I've never seen anyone use the package option and I don't think I will be either anytime soon:-0

Afternoon all. :-D <3 :-D <3 :-D <3 :-D <3

Not used a postbox for a while as the last couple of times I have needed to post anything, I have bought stamps at the counter and passed the mail over to the assistant.

Expecting K’s colleague and friend for lunch and also have a four-hour delivery slot for delivery of a new gadget. I bet it is odds on that both arrive at the same time although I hope not.

Had coffee with friends early this morning and it was coool then. It is bright and sunny now but I have the heating on cos it is still cool out there.

Enjoy the rest of the day folks. :-D <3
