We were rather thrilled in the Pearson household to receive a letter this morning from, of all people, the Post Office. Since moving to Nantwich we've lost 4 post offices, but this leaflet appeared to indicate a new Post Office which even had my son's name on it.Inside they reminisced about my son's last visit. They'd clearly mastered mail merge, which was even more impressive than Tom Champagne's attempts to inform us that we were through to Round Two of the Readers' Digest Prize Draw!
In fact on page two they'd even managed to produce a mat with welcome Stephen on it:
with an invitation to pop into the local branch. We wondered whether it was mere coincidence (or more mail merge wizardry) that the car number plate above the entreaties to use Post Office Car Insurance on page four contained my son's initials?
Unfortunately the spell broke on page seven - "Your page of useful numbers". Here it told us that one of our nearest branches was Millfields, 23 Meannee Drive, Nantwich, CW5 5JG:
What a pity that the Post Office closed down that branch nearly two years ago.....
