Considering Cards - 2. The Postman's Challenge

Sometimes cards arrive late.  Sometimes cards one might have expected don't arrive at all.  There are perhaps many reasons for this.  However, should the sender live in the town depicted on this card the cause of the delay or non-delivery is obvious enough.
 
 
It's a brave card sender who risks that tiny gap between post-box and river.  And it must be slippery too in the snow.  Maybe they never made it?  Think of the postman/woman though - perched on the ice by the river's edge to empty the thing.
 
Any community that can fund such bright lights in the top of the church tower should invest in a little health and safety for the postman I reckon.
