A Post Office that Moves with Those On the Move…

You know I like quirky things…

…and it doesn’t get any better then when Whimsy meets Practical and you wish you’d see something like this in every airport you visited.

This is a small post office van… not the delivery type of van but like a really little post office, where you can get a parcel weighed, buy stamps, post a letter etc.

Since I had written a small stack of postcards in Singapore but forgotten to buy the stamps I needed to post them, this little vehicle was a very welcome sight because it saved me from having to carry the cards around and then post them in New Zealand later.

The van parks up in various parts of the various Changi terminals so that  people who want to  post the cards or letters they wrote whilst waiting for their flight don’t have to go hunting for the terminals post office. Knowing how big these terminals are,  that  could involve some serious walking.

There’s even a post-box on the front…  into which my now stamped postcards were eventually dispatched ….Brilliant!
