Your insomnia will be challenged by tonight’s bedtime readings and we have not one, but two tomes about the operation of a mail service. Details of the day to day process of running a post office in Canada, and  proposal for an international mail service for Britain.

One thing’s for sure is this won’t be keeping you awake tonight.
