Going for their dinner?

Takeaway at night, Dalry Road. Improvised night shot walking home from the station this evening. I liked the way the yellow of the restaurant & red of the post box stood out while the darkness had faded all the other colours from the street.

This adorable mini post box added a nice pop of colour to the rainy and grey day.

Peep the seagull (aka shithawk) on the chimney. He's eyeballing me because he knows I'll feed the crows at some point.

A traditional red British post box, creatively adorned with a hand-crocheted grey and white cover featuring a fishing net pattern and fish motifs on top. The crochet work extends over the top and sides of the post box, adding a touch of community charm and artistic flair. The post box is situated outdoors in a car park, with a pharmacy and other shops visible in the background. Collection times and priority post labels are displayed on the front. A blue car is parked nearby, and the scene is set on a cloudy day.

After snapping a photo of the topper on the postbox, a local person kindly offered to tell me about the Royal Coat of Arms and what it means.

Its gonna' be a good #audax ride today. On my last #rrty 200k in 2025. #postbox topper in Stelling Minnis #kent.

A festive hand-knitted postbox topper displayed on a red British Royal Mail postbox, featuring a charming winter scene with three crocheted snowmen figures and a decorated teal Christmas tree with colorful baubles and a gold star. The scene is set on a circular blue and white crocheted base with intricate striped patterns. The snowmen have white fluffy bodies, orange carrot noses, and happy expressions, with one holding what appears to be a red mitten or scarf. Behind the display, a dark wooden building and residential street are visible under a cloudy winter sky, capturing the community spirit of festive yarn-bombing in a British village.

#FotoVorschlag - Briefkästen

Photo theme: postboxes

This is the classic British design of pillar box, or free-standing postbox. Iron, cylindrical, bright red, and this one was in Stanley on the Falkland Islands.

The Royal Cypher indicates it's from the reign of George VI and therefore fairly rare as iron priority was given to World War II for a fair chunk of his reign.

It's a very bright, sunny day, with warm tones lighting the scene. We're looking at the wall of a building that fills the view close to us. The building has narrow, overlapping, horizontal wooden boards painted white white a small shadow under each one due to the the sun's high position overhead. The edge of a simple, white wooden-framed window can just be see in the top left and the ground is a textured concrete in beige. Framed within the shot, standing just in front of the building and close enough to take up three quarters of the height of the shot is a classic, red, British postbox. It's an iron cylinder about chest-high on an adult with a thick black base before the bold red takes over up to the top which has a flared cap. The large slot for this postbox is directly at us and there's a rectangular frame below where pickup times could be displayed although it's empty. A Royal Cypher displaying fancy lettering of GR with Roman numerals VI inside it indicates this was from during the reign of George VI. Black lettering "Post Office" is beneath the cypher.

Symbolische Briefkästen aus verschiedenen Ländern im #KlimahausBremerhaven ... und ein Bonusbriefkasten in Rheinbach 🤭 // Symbolic postboxes from different countries in the #Klimahaus museum in #Bremerhaven ... plus a bonus #letterBox in Rheinbach I found pretty funny. The sticker says "No junk mail or newspapers please! Unless beer is on sale"


#Postbriefkasten #mailBox #postBox #Post
A row of five creatively designed, freestanding postal boxes displayed indoors on a wooden floor. From left to right:

1. A rustic-style box with a sloped, tiled roof and wooden sides, mounted on a black metal stand.
2. A green, textured box resembling artificial grass, featuring a small flag emblem.
3. A bright yellow box with a sleek, modern design and a small, multicoloured logo.
4. A bold red box with a minimalist design, displaying a white logo.
5. A yellow box with a black and red medical cross symbol, indicating a medical or emergency purpose.

Each box is elevated on a black metal stand, showcasing a variety of artistic and functional designs. The background features a neutral wall and geometric patterns on the floor.A close-up of a metallic, wall-mounted letterbox, likely located outside a building with a reddish-brown wall. The letterbox is made of brushed stainless steel and features a small lock at the top centre. A white label with black and blue text is affixed to the front of the box. The text, written in German, reads:

*"Bitte keine Werbung oder Zeitung einwerfen! Es sei denn Bier ist im Angebot"*

This translates to: "Please do not insert any advertising or newspapers! Unless there is beer on offer." The letterbox has a slot for mail on the top and a lock, and the surface shows minor signs of wear and reflections.

#Fotovorschlag „Dinge die mit M beginnen“: Mailbox
In Skopun steht eine sehr großes blaues Exemplar, welches oft als „world’s largest mailbox“ bezeichnet wird, auch wenn der Titel umstritten ist. Sie wurde 2012 errichtet, misst etwa 5,4 Meter in der Höhe und zeigt inzwischen sichtbare Spuren der Zeit und leichten Verfall. Zum Größenvergleich: links hängt ein normal großer weißer Hausbriefkasten.

I know it's not Glasgow, but I love this knitted postbox topper I came across in the village of Failford in Ayrshire yesterday.
