My last photo on my phone this month was taken a few days ago. Chipping Sodbury’s shopkeepers were celebrating Hallowe’en Big Time. And then we spotted the post box. It seems the cats and kittens were celebrating too. Perhaps I can get away with showing my next-to-last photo too: the baker’s shop window.
For Brian’s Last on the Card.

I love letter box toppers! Our friends in Bellingham always have delightful ones. Happy All Saint’s Day, Margaret!

That postbox topper is adorable! Besides the fact that this wouldn’t technically work with German postboxes (they are not freestanding) I’m sure it wouldn’t be allowed in any case.

Really? They’re not only tolerated, but welcomed here.

There was a craze a few years back of yard bombing here (somehow it seems to have disappeared). But a postbox is, after all, an official … thingy …
