This evening we met with Post Office Counters managers who make the final call on the future of the sub-post office at Thriplow. This was the performance for which Monday night had been the rehearsal.
A team of people put forward well-presented arguments. The team was drawn mainly from the Parish Council and those people involved in the village shop, with Andrew Lansley, our MP, summing up at the end. The Post Office people asked questions, pressed for data and facts, and set out their task.
For us there is still the need to encourage people to write letters, to be done in the next two weeks, but our case was cogent and well-researched, determined and passionate, and it was our best shot.
