Posting in this Office - The Archive Backlog 19.


There’s a queue in the post office, four or five people in front of me.

I am sixth.

The woman behind me is seventh.

I’m about 90.

She’s about 30.

She takes a chair from the desk over at the side – the desk where you can fill in complicated forms.

She sets the chair behind me and sits on it.

As we inch forward she inches the chair forward.


I guess she feels old.
