Getting your just reward

"I have to go to Blackpill to post a parcel."
Husband, "Are you walking there?"

The post office is literally ten minutes' walk away and I hadn't even considered it. I'm so used to jumping in the car to go anywhere although, to be fair, most places are quite a bit further away.

So I walked.

My reward?

The shop was closed for a week.

It's okay; you can laugh. I did.

Champing probably comes from the french : champ. Meaning (battle')field. I.e. dying (sic) to charge into a cavalry battle.

How annoying for a 'post office' to be closed. I don't think Canada Post would permit that sort of thing, but otoh I guess we don't have post offices in little shops.

Indeed, and it made me laugh

Parcel safely sent now.

Because they're cutting back on POs they do tend to be in shops now.
