How did we get onto this from post office closures????
Because I said post offices should just be required to be within reasonable range of public transport and not walking distance.

Either way she'll have to walk somewhere whether its to the bus stop or to the post office... if anything an elderly lady would be at more risk from assault OFF the bus than on it.

Also, people don't help the stereotypes of young people when they use it as examples like that. You tell a teen that they are something and they tend to act that way. For anyone watching Eastenders right now, you will be able to see just that happening with lovely Lucy Beale.
