The Amazon Hub

 I got a message from Amazon that the book I bought just before Easter has arrived in one of the lockers at the Amazon Hub. These Hubs are appearing all over the place and they are similar to train station lockers that we have used overseas but these are high tech.  I got out the bike and rode there. The hub comes with a screen as the lockers are not identified and you do not know which is yours. You can scan a bar code in the message or type in the code number and voila one of the doors flies open, fast. This one was exactly at head height and there is a lot of passing traffic, so Amazon tip, wait until the coast is clear.  At just $15 it seems Amazon is going to be cheap but there are no delivery costs in this first purchase. The previous book in the series has a price tag of $38.
