@@1234cheerful Morning post and evening post

In France, there used to be post rounds twice a day, even thrice in Paris I think.

About the trains : I was exactly thinking the same thing! One could go everywhere by train, even in the most remote places - provided one agreed to change trains multiple times and wait for hours every time, where the trip in full would take two or three hours in a car today!

Not been the same sing Beeching. NOW we wish we had a better rail network!

Yea he was the first Poirot Some might say he created Poirot That voice perfect

I'm pretty sure it is him.

It is ..Well spotted .

What else would it have been? Certainly, not a movie.

@@Wisepati…I think this is not an audiobook. It isn’t the exact text of the Christie novel. It feels more like a dramatization…something for radio, perhaps.

Good news--- there are decent ... even wonderful ... pieces of entertainment available to the public but you have to make an effort to find the stuff. I don't know what you've been watching or reading recently (the "visual rape" and such) but there's quality fiction in films, TV and audio if one looks beyond all the disposable crud that's constantly offered to the masses. And no gore or sexual assaults in your face. Bottom line, there is good story-telling there for the picking, content that will please the discerning viewer or listener.

Well I haven't found it yet.@@eduardo_corrochio
