Retirement of Paul, the Postman

We’re conducting a collection for Paul the Postman, who has recently retired, following 25 years serving residents of Haslingfield. There were so many lovely comments following the post from his daughter about his retirement, we thought it would be appropriate to thank him for all his years looking after our post.
 
We have set up a PayPal Pool to collect online donations. Alternatively Christine Kipping and Hazel Theobald are taking cash donations. Here is the link to the online collection: Online Collection
