I dont understand why a golden postbox was chosen.
At a time of shrinking business and rising prices for the service by Royal Mail so having a golden post box seem somewhat contrary.

Maybe I think too deeply! :lol:


I suppose it's because the post box is the only remaining fixture in our streets that could be decorated.

I think if BT had kept the old phone boxes they would have been another obvious candidate.

It's a nice tribute to golden performances from these dedicated athletes.

Watching the sports on TV today, the wife thrust her leg out and up into the air, letting out an earsplitting screech. I thought she was getting into the spirt of the taekwondo....but apparently it was cramp.
