Apparently postman wear shorts all year as it’s more comfortable if they get soaked in the rain than having to walk round in soggy heavy wet trousers.

They mainly use Ligier electric vehicles here for post. I haven't seen the 4 wheelers around here for a while. it's mostly these trikes. La Poste's parcel folk usually have electric Renault Kangoos.

TowandaUK Posted October 24, 2023 #31 Share Posted October 24, 2023 What is a postman? They are an endangered species here. Lucky if they venture out once a week, and are then loaded down with the backed up post! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
