Post Boxes Revamped

One of our illustrious members simply could not stand a moment longer the faded pink of the post office delivery boxes, clamped to bright red post boxes around the town. He took it upon himself to lodge a complaint with Royal Mail, more in frustration than in any hope of anything being done. 

Imagine the surprise and delight when, one day, the faded pink had changed to bright red. The pictures tell the story. It is little successes like these that sometimes make life worth living.
