Although this is a small example of the local post office, it's particularly friendly and quaint. This is a classic little post office that sell precisely everything that you want it to. By no means as busy as the post office in the centre of town, this is a great one to pop into if you want to avoid the queues and spend your afternoon doing something productive instead. There is something British and charming about any post office, I think. In this age we live in swiftly moving towards a paperless society, then maybe one day these premises will, all around the country, become obsolete. Perhaps they'll just be empty brick shells that sell stamps to collectors and pencil sharpeners (although only artists would buy them). Balls of fluff will gather in the corners. But no! We cannot let this happen, we must support our local establishments. Without the postal system, how would housewives have affairs? How would charities give you free pens? We would all have boarded up little slots in our front doors. Support! Support! Support!!

I use this post office regularly as it is quite close to me, I never have to queue very long and the staff always smile.

No car tax facility at this office though so I have to travel further to an alternative office.

So I take all of my post to this charming little branch on Bute Street in Cardiff Bay, near Mermaid Quay. This post office has the friendliest and most helpful staff, and I often find myself spending a few extra minutes chatting to Nigel and his lovely team. It has a small-town feel to it, like a place I would've taken my post in the mid-1950s. Like most Royal Mail branches, it's best to avoid this post office between the hours of 11.30 and 1, as the lunch rush means the line nearly extends out the door. Just visit around 10 am or 3 pm and you'll often find nobody there. Another reason to stop by: the charming and sweet retro greeting card selection. Not retro-style, but actually from the 80s and 90s. I buy all of my cards here because they beat a Clintons creation any day of the week. You just have to see it. Trust me.
