Dalry sub-postmistress
Florance Ruddock will
be selling her last
book of stamps on
Wednesday 30 April.
The Post Office will then move
down the street to Wright’s Shop
where the new local Post Office
will operate with Lyndsay Forbes
at the helm.
Florance moved to the Glenkens
and became Dalry’s subpostmistress in 1997 after a
few years in the same role at
Annbank in Ayrshire. “We used
to bring the caravan to Castle
Douglas when the boys were
small so we knew and liked the
area,” says Florance. Although
retiring, she and husband Andrew
have no plans to leave Dalry
other than a visit to their son in
Oklahoma. “We need to make
a few renovations so that we
can move downstairs and have
a proper front door but other
than that I am looking forward to
putting my feet up and enjoying
all the things in the village that
I couldn’t do in the past while I
was working.”
The Post Office has seen many
changes over the last 20 years
with the introduction of plenty
of new rules and regulations.
