My knowledge of King George VI pretty much begins and ends with two things: World War II and Winston Churchill. And I guess somewhere, somehow, Elizabeth II fits in there but I'm such a freak for Elizabeth I that my Anglophilia seems to peter out somewhere back there.
Which is not to say that I don't love images like this, that remind me some places still appreciate (and don't tear down and rebuild over) the older things of this world. Lovely.
*smiles* Love it. The post box is echoed in almost every other line and curve in the photo.
We should start a... something. "This is the box from which I mailed X's copy of, and this is the box from which I mailed so-and-so's birthday card..."

I love these older post boxes and also the insignia on drain covers and such like.

Nah. I'd never hold up my end.
have you fed it anything interesting lately?
This is the box between my house and the cinema, so I post a small amount in there.
