We walked along Fleet Street toward St Paul's and got some more stereotypical views of London. I couldn't pass up a shot of one of these mailboxes. Notice all the black cabs and the dome of St Paul's in the distance.

While out in our backyard enjoying Memorial Day, we heard a noise over the fence. Someone down the street had been doing some yard work and found a mailbox in their shrubbery. They thought - surely there could not be any mail in there... but low and behold, there was!
Yup, whoever knocked over and stole our mailbox hid it in a bush down the street. I'm not sure if it was a thief covering up the crime, or some moron trying to cover up a mistake.
If it were a thief, though, you'd think they'd just steal the mail and not the whole box. If it was a moron - why just down the street?
There's no obvious damage to the box (more than what was already there), so there's no real clue as to how it was removed from the post. The mail, including a bill, is useless, so aside from shredding the mail, the whole thing is destined for the trash can. We like the new mailbox better, anyway.
Mailbox that has been around a long time. Solid post, but crushed and rusty. You can only guess the age. It is probably older that any living postman.
A salesman caught a lot of people on this street. Brick went up on the fronts of houses. mailboxes matched.
See the bull in this yard?
The Mailbox opened in 1998 and was the redevelopment of the former Royal Mail sorting office in Birmingham City Centre.
Now it is the UK’s largest mixed-use building incorporating retail, leisure, offices and residential in a well managed, security patrolled complex of the highest quality.
The tenants included Malmaison and Ramada hotels, the BBC Midlands headquarters, luxury retailers such as Harvey Nichols, Emporio Armani, Hugo Boss and sixteen restaurants and cafe bars.
The Mailbox is Birmingham’s premier shopping and lifestyle destination with exclusive stores, restaurants, cafe bars, hotels and 24 hr parking. It is the ultimate location for designer shopping in the Midlands with international brands as well as chic salons & spas in one central Birmingham location.
