Hi everyone
Claughton Village Post Office and Fat Lolly Sams (next door) have been closed for the last few days. They are leased by a man named Christian Hercules. Do hope we dont lose our wonderful Post Office.
Does anybody know any more? Hursts the bakers are being inundated by enquiries and have put a sign up to say dont ask us!

There seems to be a number of Post Offices on the Wirral where they have suspended the Post Master or put them under investigation, it seems to be a back-door way to close post offices.

Post offices are franchises and the franchisee has to comply with the franchise rules including opening hours.
There is no charge for the franchise, the shop receives commission on all post office transactions. The training, equipment and fittings are provided free by the post office.
It’s a really good deal but you have to work hard.

It’s a really good deal but you have to work hard. Many thanks for that. Ive always wondered how they operate. So its more down to people not wanting to run them rather than the national Post Office organisation. Hopefully someone will take up the cause again. Its a great location and very busy.
