Scout post?

Post by bunkerland »

Are there many places where this still runs? I hadn't heard of it in ages till one of my colleagues said it was still done in his home town! My main memory of it is having a deluge of cards that they couldn't find or couldn't be bothered delivering stuffed in the post box's just before Xmas! :evil/mad

Happened a few years ago in my area. Xmas eve saw parents driving around in thier cars delivering the cards. Yes the rest were stuffed in post boxes and when we came back after xmas we charged every one :dance
