But in those distant days, there was no other means of communication for most people. There was semaphore, then morse code, then telegrams, then landline telephones (no idea of dates or what order they were invented or introduced). Actual written letters might be carried around the country on horseback or in stage coaches. I'm so ancient I remember it was a big deal to get a birthday telegram on my birthday, and my parents didn't have a phone for ages. Now many things are done by email or other online methods, and most people (at least in this country) have mobiles. And if something needs a physical copy, it can usually be printed out at home (or at a print shop if you don't have a printer). So actual physical post is becoming less and less important for the vast majority of people. I'm pretty sure the idea of first and second class post was originally in terms of the time taken between posting and delivery (first class next day, second class longer) and nothing to do with the time of day things were delivered, but I stand to be corrected. If the changes mean we get things like new bank cards quicker, then great, but otherwise I can't see it's going to make much difference to most people. Even things like hospital appointments are dealt with by apps and/or email these days.

You can buy devices for fixed that spray water when a remote sensor is triggered. Next door use successfully - we used to have but I was the one that mostly got wet and I now enjoy our foxes - agree we should protect our precious wildlife.
