The post office was an imposing building and had a feeling of grandeur when you walked into it. I worked in Clerical and my late husband worked in the Post Office Savings Bank.

Is that the Greenstone building?

My Uncle Bill (Ginge) Millet bought a new MK4 Cortina off them. I remember going there early in the morning and the cars were undercover, big reveal and a sausage sizzle. Be 1977 I'm thinking. Pretty sure he traded in his MK2 Cortina on it.

It's a shame that guy that makes those Point of View videos wasn't around to make one of Greymouth back in those days.

My dad worked in the Telegraph Dept in the old Post Office . I remember Ford's 'Bottom Shop ' well ( the Top Shop was on the Main Rd just up from the Recreation Hotel ) There was a dentist above Ford Motors that I spent every thursday after school with ... for a year . I was 9 or 10 and had to wear braces for a year ... I kept losing and breaking them . I'm sure the olds were well impressed .
