Victoria St. Stromness.

Date estimated. Postcard would have been bought in 1974 on my arrival in Orkney.
Picture added on 30 March 2007
Comments:
PF Thompson's mail lorry contracted by GPO to take mail through from Kirkwall to St Ola every morning and return mail from Ola to Kirkwall after arrival from scrabster (pre ro/ro) and likely picking up Stromness mail bound for Kirkwall.

Driven for years by Ian Smith and then by Syd Cooper.

Peter Skea drove the lorry after Sid Cooper, Sid left PF Thomson's employment to become a postman.
