One night in ten: Distributed postal service

Stemming from the communities talking to each other conundrum, but with a little of rising fuel costs thrown in. Do we really need mail delivered to our door? What if it was 5 doors down, and I had to pop round (or they did by private arrangement if I’m really lazy) or the end of […]
