what is meant by "post office queueing" in this context?.


The Royal Mail has undertaken a redesign of its branches. Instead of
queuing in a line, you take a number from a machine for the type of
service that you require and approach a counter when your number is called.

At least I think that's what it means.


No - just one queue for multiple counters (as opposed to each counter
having its own queue).
