MP Jo Swinson got a first hand insight into the trials of the postie as she went on an early morning delivery round with postman Alan Ponton on his Bearsden beat.

The postal affairs undersecratary learned how the postal system works from posting a letter to having it delivered to its final destination.

Describing the army of posties as one of the institutions in society that “binds us together for the common good”, Ms Swinson added: “I wanted to get a real understanding of the work that goes into delivering the mail on a daily basis.”
