Hi folks,
We absolutely agree about Paul!
How about we send a card and letter to the post office along these lines?
A letter to the post office
Dear Faringdon Post Office
We are writing to express our thanks for the tremendous service Paul has given
to our villages and to ask you to reconsider his reassignment.
Everyone has an idea of the perfect postie: someone who will get the message
through come rain or shine, but somehow always has time to stop and chat.
Paul has lived up to that ideal and more. He knows every person and every pet.
He takes a real interest in our lives and our community. He is part of our
community.
We understand that now, after 17 years, Paul may be reassigned to another
round.
With no offence intended to the new person on the Coxwells beat – we are sure
they would be very professional – we are writing to ask you to please keep Paul
on the Coxwells round.
For many of us, whether it’s a break in a busy work day, or a point of contact
on a quiet morning, Paul’s visits are a bright point in the day. It would be a
tremendous loss if those relationships were broken for logistical convenience.
We would be very grateful if you would reconsider so that Paul can remain part
of our Coxwell community.
With thanks and best wishes
XXX XXX
If that would work, we could pop a card and note into the phone box library (is
that OK, Ian?) for people of the Coxwells to sign, then we could drop it off at
the Sorting Office some time next week?
Thanks and best wishes,
Richard & Sophie
(and Merlin, who would miss him too)

Pitchforks at the border!
No seriously I agree *something* needs to be done. How can 17 years just be
disregarded like that?

Several of us think we should get up a petition (including Little
Coxwell/elsewhere??) and refuse to let the new postman into the village!! The
dogs aren't happy either!

Hi All
Yes we are already planning on doing something as he has been amazing. The
Community group are just deciding what to do.

Hi all
We are relative newcomers to the village, so we haven't known Paul as long as
some, but we feel sad that he is no longer to be our postman.
Does anyone know if there are any plans to club together to get him a card or
present? It feels as though it would be appropriate to do something?
Best wishes
