UK Gold

You have to love people looking out for Post Boxes for you :)
This one came from a relative in the UK who sent it to me via Facebook.

Natasha Baker

Gold medal Equestrian: Mixed Individual Championship Test - Grade II

To mark Natasha's gold medal winning performance, Royal Mail has painted a post box on the

 High Street in Uxbridge, gold.

Thanks Michele :)

Precious

Why? you ask.

As it is ours!

Haven't had any mail yet but I am sure over the many many years to come we may receive some.

Roleystone WA

How good would it be to have this as your letter box? Jealous.

Garland road,

Fremantle Western Australia

Another great contribution from AB.

The old in the door slot.

I do wonder how many times the post man cursed each day after jaming a finger or two...

Jerrawangala

Found this new letter box on the Princes Highway at Jerrawangala, South Coast NSW.

This area was burnt out by bushfires in January this year so this is a new replacement.

Bundeena

Driving through Bundeena we came across these two creative letterboxes.

Might have something too do with this:

The Art Trail.

George Street, The Rocks.

This grand looking pillar box is located on George Street, The Rocks.

The above photo was a second trip in to capture this box as the first one was bombed by my son as you can see below.

Playfair street, The Rocks

What a great find this one was, I spend everyday in The Rocks and I didn't even know this street existed. 

A friend posted some photo of Sydney on her Face book page and I saw it in the background, so next day I went and saw for myself. Not sure if in use as there was no signage on it but slots were open.

The Rocks

This post box has been given a new paint job in recent months as it was looking very neglected before. This one is located on the corner of Argyle and Kent St Millers Point. The wall in lives in was once a post office. 

Mudgee, NSW

Had this one sent to me from a good friend who was strolling around Mudgee, while away on a weekend of wine tasting.

Mudgee is in the Central west of New South Wales.

Claude Road, Tasmania

Last Tasmania one for this trip, passed this near Claude Road, which is  on the way from Sheffield to Cradle Mountain. That is Mount Rowland in the background, we have put that on our list to climb. 

Ross, Tasmania.

This trip to Tasmania we made sure we dropped into Ross, so glad we did as it is such a beautiful town. Ross is located just off the Midlands Hwy between Launceston and Hobart.

 As we strolled along the main drag we come across this beautiful old sandstone Post Office so I thought I would share it with you.

It was Autumn while we were there and the elm leaves were a stunning yellow.

Arthur Hwy, Tasman Peninsula

We were recently in Tasmania when we passed this very creative letterbox. It is on the Arthur Highway near Sugar Loaf Road between Hobart and Port Arthur.

Bolong

We have been passing this fellow for years and I finally managed a snap shot while driving past. He lives on Bolong Road Bolong which is just north north of Nowra, NSW.

Coldingham, Scotland, UK

Yes AB again, this was our last night in Scotland back in March 2011.

We saw this post box on our way to dinner and AB couldn't resist a bit of fun, lucky for the fence otherwise she would never have of reached.

Barcaldine, Queensland.

Barcaldine which is between Blackall and Longreach at the Australian Workers Heritage Centre
