About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One day, a delivery driver asked a regular: ‘Do you ever notice how the mailman always seems to arrive exactly when you’re leaving?’ The regular thought for a moment and replied with a smile, ‘Actually, I’ve noticed something even stranger—when I’m in no hurry, he never shows up!’ A friendly laugh echoed through the post office as everyone nodded in agreement.
2. One morning, a regular arrived early and noticed an old envelope taped to the counter. Curious, he opened it—and found a handwritten note inside: 'The next person who opens this will receive good luck.' Since then, everyone leaving the post office has been checking their envelopes for hidden messages. Finally, one day a delivery driver found a note reading: ‘You’ll never believe what’s in here!’ Inside was just another envelope with a note saying, “Sorry, out of lucky messages today.” Everyone laughed, realizing it had become part of Coleshill Road’s charm.
3. Late one night, a mailman heard a strange humming coming from inside Coleshill Road Post Office. Curious, he peered through the window and saw an envelope glowing softly in the corner. The mailman cautiously approached, thinking it might be some sort of trick or prank. As he got closer, the glow intensified, revealing not just one but dozens of letters and packages softly illuminating the room. Turns out, an elderly neighbor had accidentally left her lantern on in the post office after hours. Everyone had a good laugh over coffee the next morning—except maybe the poor mailman who now had double the deliveries for that day.
4. Late one night, a mailman delivered a package marked only with a mysterious note: ‘Open me when you least expect it.’ Curious, he opened it in broad daylight—only to discover a handwritten message saying: 'Now that you've seen this, can you deliver happiness today?' Inside was a packet of homemade cookies from his neighbor. The mailman smiled, realizing that sometimes the best deliveries come unexpectedly.
