• This was one of the Post Offices we used to use each day to send business mail. My spend was between £20 and £100 per day there. I have been using them on and off for years. When one spends at that kind of level in the Post Office, the time has passed to move onto what is called PPI. Not that they have to actually do anything with it other than hand it to the next Royal Mail driver who comes in. They come in several times a day. Yesterday was our first crack at PPI. I swanned into Windmill Lane Post Office in Dane Bank with it and left it near their inner door and asked if that was OK. The middle aged woman looked a little flustered (which isn’t unusual in there), and asked me what it was. I explained it was PPI, and she just looked blank. “All you need to do is hand it to the collection driver” I helpfully added. While she was ruminating on that seemingly complicated prospect, I thanked her and left. Today I strolled in with my bag and the elderly woman was behind the counter. She suddenly started shouting “Wait! You cant leave those here” over and over and hysterically gesticulating. When asked why not, “no space!” was the reply. It took a moment for the penny to drop that if I wasn’t paying them directly, they didn’t want to take my mail. Clearly absurd, because if I had been over-paying them for them as usual, there would be space. This is one sack remember. I could see into the back room – there was ample space. Out through the door trundles Peter to reinforce the idea they were not going to accept mail on behalf of Royal Mail, at a Post Office, that Royal Mail pays them a salary to run, and er…….. collect mail. Why not be honest and tell the truth? Why not just say “Thank you for giving us tens of thousands of pounds of your money the last four years — but now you can get stuffed mate”. I would have preferred that honesty rather than watch the diminutive Peter squirming and sweating with a crimson face making up stories about no space.
