I don't have a huge amount of family - but two of them were posties and three of them are lawyers. I must ask one of the former mail deliverers what he thinks about the etiquettes of mail delivery - how far is too far to put ones hand through a mal slot in a front door; and ask one of the lawyers when one of them returns from Christmas holidays, what can a shrewd legal mind think up in defence of a dog on an errand who was merely doing his duty in gathering a pile of hot-off-the-press mail and someone's hand to take to his dad or mum.
By the way, if I had a mail slot on my front door, I would have had a catch box on the inside. But where would the fun be then for a Corgi?
If I was the Post Office, I would be most upset if the defence lawyer argued that a postal employee had no right to put their hand as far as they wish through a mail slot in delivering mail. It was nice of a mail worker to want to put the mail down as gently as possible to the floor. Who knows what's in a letter - a crystal glass version of a Go Corgi calendar????
