Does anyone else remember that song?! (My blog post title!)
I always remember it being sung on SM:TV live in the good old days of Ant, Dec
and Cat Deeley. Anyway, I digress.
To get back into the swing of posting, my post today is
about post! I have always loved getting post. Silly maybe, but it's the small
things right? Back when I was a young teen, I used to get my early post from
Swapit shop. Does anyone else remember that website?! It was like an eBay for children
where you used points to buy things. Whoa, I seem to be going on a memory lane
trip today.
So when I was younger I would wait eagerly for the post. It
didn't arrive until gone 12, and it was put in a box on the gate which wasn't
right next to our house. I remember rushing out there to check the box for
anything. It does sound a little bit sad thinking about it now! But when you
live in the middle of nowhere, as a 14 year old girl, the post was a highlight
of another British summer day spent sat inside watching TV.
These days I still love getting post. Sure, not all of my
post these days is positive. But I do get some nice things in the post.
Lovefilms for example. DVDs delivered by post every few days/weeks. What's not
to love! I used to have a magazine and beauty box subscription which I loved
getting in the post. I have a 12 weekly chocolate box subscription - yum!
The best thing to get in the post are online orders. I buy
quite a lot on eBay, so love receiving these. I am a 26 year old girl, so
obviously clothes/beauty bits arrive every so often. These can sometimes help
to lift my spirits if I have a bad day.
I travel down to Cornwall 3 times a year to see my family,
and I'm always a bit sad to come back home again. However one thing I look
forward to is knowing I will have a large collection of post waiting for me
when I get back. The best time is after xmas if I have ordered things in the
sale. Even if I'm not expecting anything, I will always return home to
catalogues, letters and films.
So here's my appreciation to the postman who delivers me my
goodies each day. Thank you Mr Postman!
Do you like getting post?
