I do love the way that simple, factual statement can sometimes imply its own complete opposite.


image of pillar box with very unconvinving sign stating it is 'working properly'

I spotted this in Muswell Hill on Tuesday. In general, I don't automatically question the integrity of every pillar box I pass. I don't think I'd have trusted this one with a letter.

It’s missing its defences though.

It went to the hairdressers and asked to try something different, and got the skinhead look rather than the spiky look.

Wow. I've never seen a fetish pillar box before.

None the worse for that :) One lightly operetta-dusted kudo for you.
