Alison McInnes MSP has visited Royal Mail's Ellon Delivery Office to pass on best Christmas wishes and encouragement to the post men and women at their busiest time of year.
Mrs McInnes was shown round the Delivery Office by local Delivery Office manager, Mandy McDonald, and was introduced to all the postmen and women who are working hard doing their bit to sort and deliver the area's share of the estimated total Scottish Christmas postbag of 200 million items.
Alison McInnes MSP said:
"It was great to meet the hard-working Royal Mail post men and women at Ellon Delivery Office and to see at first hand just how much effort they put into delivering for people at this time of year.
"Posties do such an important job at this time of year and I like to thank them for their efforts and wish them all the best over the busy festive period."
Mandy McDonald, Royal Mail Delivery Office Manager at Ellon said:
"Christmas is the busiest time of year, and our people really do pull out all the stops throughout the year to ensure mail is delivered quickly but even more so over the busy festive period. So we are pleased that Alison McInnes MSP came along to witness the hard work that goes on behind the scenes."
She added: "The postal staff do a fantastic job at this time of year to ensure that friends and families stay in touch through their Christmas greetings and gifts. And as usual, we urge our customers to post early so that friends and family have longer to enjoy their Christmas greetings!"
