Post Office news
Residents of the Gower will know by now that Mr Keyte has opened a Post Office and shop at Ivy Cottage, which ironically is situated immediately between the two former Post Offices. His early closing days will be Tuesday and Saturday afternoons.
I am sure all those who have used the roving Post Office in the Village Hall on Wednesdays will want to thank Mrs Dyer for looking after us so well in recent years. The visit to the Post Office became quite a social occasion where friends could chat in the Hall between transactions.
The Oxfordshire Rural Community Council has put out a circular urging us to make the fullest possible use of our sub Post Offices, otherwise we may lose them.
