THE GOPHER COURIER EXPRESS

During the difficult period of internal strife in Southern Digbyland that indigenous partisans decided to take their original colony back. Changes were made in the mails. It occurred  to many that a special type of mail courier service was required to counter the activities of the Mole Mail tunnel system that had been developed by the Digby Brothers.

A communication network of gopher tunnels soon connected not only post offices in Southern Digbyland, but in many nation states of the Barbaru Coast.

Scarabeus Binkel, the head of government of the Frie Stajt, was imprisoned in the Nedtown Pen. He began to send important messages by way of the gophers, utilizing the unique Tunnelli-Gram System.

The Advantages of Gopher Mail Over Ghost Parrot Mail

The letter above, carrying cosmetic samples, could never have been delivered by Ghost Parrot. The new Gopher Couriers, working in teams, found no difficulties in transporting reasonably large parcels.

See my posts on the Ghost Parrot by clicking on the 'parrot  courier' label in my Blog Search in the column to the left.
