Video nasties and niceys

I hope you had the kind of Christmas and New Year you were hoping for...whether it involved something vigorous like kayaking in Snowdonia, or something far more sensible like watching eight films a day from your settee.
Great to see Ben Hur, Cleopatra, Jason and the Argonauts plus The Great Escape again, wasn't it? Certainly more pleasant viewing than the ultimate snuff movie - the demise of Saddam Hussein (yep, I went on You Tube and watched it, shame on me). Personally I prefer our video of the rescued seals which you can still check out at dailypost.co.uk
Our merchandising team have been handing over our "Save the Post Offices" petitions to post offices around North Wales today - I gather that the feedback has been very positive. We are doing all we can to save as many post offices as possible from Alistair Darling's scythe so make sure you sign up the next time you pop into your post office.
Also, we are just two weeks away from the launch of a new scheme called Friends of the Daily Post. it will give you a chance to help shape the future of the best selling newspaper in North Wales. My colleague, senior assistant editor Mark Brittain, will be revealing more in due course.
