For most people, the posting of parcels is the end of a good deal of Christmas work, but for Post Office officials, it is only the beginning. Their annual Christmas rush begins several weeks before 25th December, and week by week the mail increases, making their task a formidable one. But as you can see by the picture, they can work at top speed and still look happy about it, and after all, it must be a thrill for them to know that the whole country depends on them to ensure that Christmas is a universal success Good wishes to the Post Office personnel.
