Here on Skye I do more than deliver letters and parcels. There aren't any buses or trains on this part of
island, so the post office also runs a passenger service. The bus which I drive has eleven seats, so
people from the farms and villages can get into Bradford for shopping or for work.
I live in Elgin, a small village on the south-west coast of the island. I leave Elgol post office every
morning at 8 a.m. and drive my bus 24km to Broadford. I stop for passengers and empty the five post
boxes along the road. I also pick up the school children that live along my route and take them to the
school in Broadford. There's a school for young children in Elgol, but the older children have to travel
into the town.
It usually takes me about three hours to finish my round. I take shopping to some of the elderly person
who can't always get to Broadford; I deliver milk and newspapers six days a week. I shouldn't deliver

course, for all these extra services. It's 70p to travel from Elgol to Broadford and it costs 10p to deliver
