Post Boxes
From 10-April-2023, the last collection times from the post boxes have deteriorated as follows:
Alne Village: 09:00 Mon-Fri, 07:00 Saturday. This is the last time that will guarantee a same-day collection. The metal day tag shouild tell you whether you have missed that day's post or not if you go at a later time. This post box is cunningly hidden in the wall of the old post office (c1943-2005). This is two houses to the west of the Bluebell Inn.
Alne Station: 09:00 Mon-Fri, 07:00 Saturday. This is the last time that will guarantee a same-day collection. The metal day tag shouild tell you whether you have missed that day's post or not if you go at a later time. This post box is at the entrance to the old Alne station.
No collections on Sundays or Bank Holidays.
There is no obvious way to get these times automatically updated. So, if you see that they have changed, please contact us through the website contact page.

Fine words butter no parsnips
This proverbial saying is English and dates from the 17th century. It expresses the notion that words count for nothing and that action means more than flattery or promises.
Every project needs a driver.
Robert Brech (probably on his tombstone!) Committees rarely drive successful projects, only a driver does that.
