Cradley Post Office Gets a Makeover
After months of planning Sue and David Major have this week (7 February 2003) completely revamped the Cradley Post Office and Stores. With a little help from the Countryside Agency and lots of cooperation from everyone who works in the shop, this week has seen their plans become reality.
The changes were made whilst still serving their customers. Brian Herbert painted the shop from top to bottom. For the shopfitters, putting in the new shelving and taking out the old was like a Chinese puzzle. Trina Fitzer had to hop up and down the steps all day as most of the stock had to be held in the back whilst the work was in progress. For the customers each day was Hunt the Newspaper day.
Now everything is in place, making it easier for those who want self-service, but with the normal personal service for those who want it. The overall reaction from customers has been "Its looks great", "It looks so clean", "There seems to be much more room". Sue is also very pleased that some of the old shelving is being put to good use in a charity shop that will be opening shortly in Gloucester
As customers we should congratulate Sue and David, and more to the point, continue to use the stores as much as possible.
