Save the post office

I’m way behind on this, but I only started reading JonnyB’s Private Secret Diary in September and this happened in the sort of June and August kind of time.

Jonny did a protest song campaigning against the closure of the village post office that might happen at some point. The Observer blog’s description was “If the Streets and Billy Bragg collaborated to campaign against Post Office closures (with bunnies)”.

You can go in there at any times for to cash your giro
They are so nice that they’ll even let you use their biro
The wicked thing about it is its somewhere that you trust
We could even have it open just on Wednesdays if you must

Don’t close the Post office
I should mention that it is my intention
to walk there for my pension

Listen to the song with the video involving rabbits and chimps and sheep and things (1mb)

Other links of interest:
Opening of the Post8 campaign
Download the song as a proper audio mp3 thing (Higher quality – about 4mb I think)
Letter to Jeremy Vine
Closing of the Post8 campaign

    Glad you enjoyed it!

    Credit where credit is very definitely due: the video was totally and entirely designed and produced by Ms Eclectech (http://www.eclectech.co.uk) and anybody that likes it should definitely check out her other stuff from the ‘animations’ link on the left…

    And the Post Office is still open!!! Hurrah!!!
