At least a clear-cut decision...
For more than a month now the inhabitants of a part of a small town do no get letters, parcels or any kind of mail. The postman in charge refuses categorically to deliver mail unless a dog would be taken “out of the way” he defines dangerous. Had this dog, as in most cases, a specific master the problem would most probably be solved in short time, the “pressure” from all others waiting for their mail would have its impact. In our case, however, this dog is perceived to be owned by all inhabitants of the part of town, the people declare to have brought him up altogether – and that the dog was absolutely harmless. This assertion, on the other side, does not convince the postman.
So we might have to wait for the outcome: will this part of town do without mail or without dog – in the end we cannot exclude the Italian postal services will find a solution, although they are not renowned for “finding solutions”…….. Let me remind you: In Italy most bills are sent by mail, honi soit qui mal y pense!
