A few little adjustments to keep in theme with the winter village.  A snowy roof was called for :)  Hopefully the addition of the rope will slow up the robbers for a bit.

White roof sets it off  maybe a camera  ,window counter and security doors would be better deterrent ,of course it's up to you how or when the robbers encroach

White roof adds a lot to the Christmas feel so a big improvement. If you have any ..

(http://img.bricklink.com/P/1/15070.jpg) or (http://img.bricklink.com/P/1/49668.jpg) you could see if it adds to the snowy roof affect. Haven't tried it before but I'm sure I've seen it done.

I feel you could add in a chimney, it just looks like a old Post Office house that would have a chimney! Ideally it would have a second floor  for the postmaster to call home :)

That post office is open very late though. Unions might be on to you...

Thanks David.  I have a few of these that might work:

Not sure I have the room for the height which is why the church has been abandoned!  The tree comes down with just enough room for the train to get around.

As regard to the unions ... best not show you the child labour in Santa's Workshop :)
