In the run up to Christmas the local Post Offices can be very crowded with long queues.  Why not buy your stamps and post your parcels at Tickenham Post Office, where the parking is easy?  It’s open on Mondays from 10 till 11.30 and Wednesdays from 2 till 4 pm, in the Committee Room of the Village Hall (access via the back door).  On Mondays you can even have coffee and cake!  Tickenham Post Office will run all through December, so please patronise it and help keep it open.
