Like those pictured or one of the larger 5 foot high ones? I've got my eye on one due to be scrapped.

It's one of those 2ft tall by about 1ft square, with the top curving back towards the rear and on a post about 3ft high. Standard sort of issue around and about here in the fens.

Why not "relocate" one closer to home!
Easy enough carry on a bike, with a rack, and who'd believe you if you said it was a postbox inside the bin liner.
If you were asked.

We have just discovered that our son has been waiting for an AA recovery vehicle to pick him up from Oxford For 3 hours . The first AA man must have discovered that the electronic hand brake had stuck on so he couldn't tow it , so must have called for a recovery vehicle .
If our son had called us we could have picked him up a long time ago .

You have a tow truck? wow cool


Or is that a truck with a Hiab crane for you to lift your son?

Just seen the first Christmas advert on telly for this year.

Edited to add
And there's a cyclist in it!

I've had a delivery by Hermes this afternoon, but judging by the picture, it looks like I'll have to check the contents carefully when I get home as the box appears a bit damaged...

The other end of the box was also damaged and required a hand underneath to stop everything falling out. Probably got crushed in transit and not helped by a pair if cycling trainers being loose packed and not boxed to aid rigidity. Very poor packaging by Aldi.

Everything there?

Yes, so no complaints about that.

In Cong tonight and in the words of John Wayne, "I'll have pint of your black beer bartender" although I'm in the wrong pub as the one used in the film doesn't have seats outside.

I suspect someone at the B&B has slightly more cash (or more debt!) than I have as I'm parked beside a Maserati Ghibli.

Be careful of the doors, please.

Warm, blustery and occasionally sunny here chez Casa Reynard.

Something very odd is going on with my Book of Faces. I can type in Messenger, but I cannot type anything on the site proper. All I can do with posts is react with the "likes". Most frustrating.

Had a morning spent doing paperwork and the prep for tonight's supper.

It is almost time for lunch.

My bread hasn't developed language skills... yet.

Tonight's supper requires paperwork?
Now that is taking bureaucracy a bit too far.

Takeaway from pizza place downtown. Which is fine, I messed up my wrist yesterday and do not feel like stretching dough for homemade.

And I wear a brace on the other wrist at night, so I have all bases covered.
