Offbeat Enough

A couple from Devon run their local post office - from their kitchen.

Steve and Sue Kingston from Ashreigney have turned one of their worktops into a counter.

They cook around the equipment in between serving customers who use the front door.

According to The Sun Sue, 53, said: “We eat meals, feed the dog and make drinks there as normal. It was that or lose the post office.”

It is the only community facility left in the village since the local pub and shop closed.

Only 445 people live in the village.

A Post Office spokeswoman said: “There are post offices in pubs, churches and front rooms - but I’ve never heard of one in a kitchen. We hope Ashreigney supports the Kingstons.”
