Walking around Hampstead i noticed this old wall post box there are still a few left in London that are still being used in this age of high technology. This one is probably from the Victiorian era so they are still in competition with the internet email I wonder when their day is up I can't see this model on the following link so I only guess it is Victorian. www.norvic-philatelics.co.uk/2009/images/090818_postbox_s...
I have since come back to this description and I have now noticed that at the top of this post box there is a V space R that must stand for victoria regina.
A little stop-motion animation experiment.

In the mid 1970s, or so, I “rescued” a small number of old newspapers; alas they started disintegrating so I dare not try to make more copies of interesting adverts or articles
Memories of Summer.
Looking out over the North moor of Dartmoor National Park, one of my favourite places in Britain.
Contains some of the earliest traces of human habitation and later industrialisation in the British Isles.
This agreeable streamlined building in Penarth, now occupied by a Bangladeshi restaurant, was originally a post office. Above the upper central window is the royal cipher and the date, 1936. It is the cipher of George V, who died that year.
The post office has now moved elsewhere, but the Royal Mail still use the far end of the building, up the flight of steps at the right. Both the building and the smartly painted pillar box are listed.

Don't say I didn't warn him. :)
.....Post Office. A very stylish building with curved frontage to follow the line of Borough Road. The Post Office was formerly in Union Street and moved to new premises here in 1926.

Ever since i can remember, i have been (religiously) going for the Mahashtami anjali.
This is me with my aunt looking pretty happy as we barely managed the anjali - there are batches for doing this and we were on the last one..phew!
Here is a picture of a Post Office. What troubles did early Post Offices face, and what did they do to protect themselves?
I'm proud to present the Emiliacouture Spring 2021 ready to wear capsule collection: "Post Apocalypse".
The Post Apocalypse athleisure garments are all about movement and dancing around the apartment while no one is watching. This Issey Miyake inspired collection of lounge wear is made out of Japanese pleated cotton blend with PVC stripes. The soft and stiff stripes give the fabric a unique shapeability that is really fun to play around with.
All items are OOAK and fit most 16" dolls (photographed here on Inamorata 3.0). They are sold as mix-an-match items at my store:

The background wall elements are made by Julia Gartung and painted by me using a sponge technique. The leather lounge that is in some pics is also commissioned from Julia.
