I said sure (certain I did). So from 103 Colmore Row to Snowhill Station, I walked the whole length of Colmore Row, the beating heart of Birminghams business district and there isn't a sing frigging postbox anywhere. I nearly missed my bloody train and had to actually bring them home with me and post them in Shirley. Bonkers. There's one at the top of Needless Alley Post Office Services near you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted February 28, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted February 28, 2023 Yeah I guessed there were some scattered about the place but I was short on time and just couldn't believe there wasn't one actually en route. Even more annoyingly there was a frippin Royal Mail Van parked outside Snow Hill Station for no purpose I could imagine other than to raise my hopes there was a post box next to it.
