Sir.-On December 7, I tried to post a letter in the box in Festival Place, but found this was full, so I then tried the twin boxes at the Top of The Town and, once again, both were full - time 3pm.
The following day, I tried to use the box outside Winklebury post office, and I was able to squeeze my mail in with the box full up to the slot - time 9am.
I know we are told "post early", but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that, at this time of year, the collections should be more frequent.
We are advised to post early at this time of year, that is providing you can find a box to use.
