    Today's so-called 'mail' consisted of a mailshot from BT about broadband, a begging letter from a charity, and a leaflet telling me how wonderful our Conservative Councillor is (I hadn't realised).

    I note, however, that the red 'cart' they now use to haul the mail - and lock up round a lamp-post while they deliver a few streets - was chained in our road for about 7 hours yesterday. A day we received no mail. I think he was probably in the pub all day. It's a hard life being a postie these days.

    I had something from Age UK - it's still lying on the door mat.
