Eta the reason they want to know the number is for tracking. Not sure why they don't put gps on them if they want to get Google maps movement patterns?

Who are you calling old codgers?
I rather like the expression but thought that at 42 y.o I would have to wait another 10 years at least to get into that bracket !

Looking for Post Office jokes I came across this old one. Still good though:
"A Post Office worker at the main sorting office finds an unstamped, poorly hand-written envelope addressed to God. He opens it and discovers it is from an elderly lady, distressed because some thief robbed her of 100 dollars. She will be cold and hungry for the rest of the month if she doesn't receive some divine intervention.
The worker organizes a collection amongst the other postal workers, who dig deep and come up with 96 dollars. They get it to her by special courier the same morning.
A week later, the same postal worker recognizes the same hand on another envelope. He opens it and reads: "Dear God, Thank you for the 100 dollars. This month would have been so bleak otherwise. P.S. It was four dollars short but that was probably those thieving bastards at the Post Office". "
and these:
A woman took a package to the post office to mail and was told it would cost $2.40 for fast delivery or $1.30 for slower service. "There is no hurry," she told the clerk, "just so the package is delivered in my lifetime." The postmaster glanced at her and said, "That will be $2.40, please."
A lady bought a stamp at the post office and asked the clerk, "Shall I stick it on myself?" The clerk replied, "It'll get there faster if you stick it on the envelope."
What do you call Bob the Mailman after he gets fired? Bob.

What do you call Bob the Mailman after he gets fired? Bob. That must be an American variant (copy) of the Brit version. What do you call Postman Pat after he gets sacked? Pat.

We are all Americans these days. Just happen to be born in Britain which gives us the British accents (is there anything not run by the Americans these days in the UK? Car parks, security services, prisons - apart from the French-Chinese-owned nuclear power station that's yet to be built, ie. Chernoble No.2)
