Castlerea postman says goodbye to post bike 'Bridie'

Post man Noel Curran joined Joe on the show this week to discuss the end of an era.

After 12 years of delivering the post from his trusty bike 'Bridie', Noel has been transferred to a new EV post van.

An Post has been phasing the bikes out over the last few years due in part to the massive increase in parcels being sent.
