Postie helps Nottingham woman choose front door colour

A Nottingham woman who had been deciding which colour to paint her front door received some helpful advice from her postie.

Elizabeth Pocklington, a teacher from Nottingham, painted the colour choices she was considering on the black front door and then received a ‘we missed you’ Royal Mail note on Tuesday.

On the official card left by her post lady was written “2nd green up from bottom looks the best” as a piece of advice about the paint colour.

The tweet which describes what happened has been liked over 82,000 times.

She said: “I asked our post lady about the note and she was so shy about it”

“I’d ordered the colour about a week and a half ago but I don’t know whether to change it or not now.

“The response has been awesome on Twitter and Facebook, obviously we’ve had lockdown and this is a story that has put a smile on people’s faces.”

Elizabeth said in a tweet ‘We were struggling to choose a front door colour… thank you to the postie for helping us out!’
