I can imagine the postman in good weather . . .
a delight to be in the fresh air, away from crowds
and for him barking dogs maybe :) . . but when it
rains . . when it snows . . when its foggy too . .
what a job he has to do . . but I guess he has
a mail van, silly me :) not a bike or walking . .
so he'll be happy :)))

Lovely words and eloquently put Beverley, up here in the remote North it can be many a mile between stops, so he would need to be an Olympian to ride a bike on this round ;-))

Where's the house that's belonging to that post box? Way up in the hills? :-) Too much exercise for the postman/postwoman ;-))

Roger (Grisly) ^club has replied to Edna Edenkoben ^club

Thank you, Edna, It's a public post box for sending mail, placing them on road junctions is the norm in remote parts of the country.

A lovely rural scene with the road pointing nicely into the picture Roger. I like the craggy hill and the dark green of the gorse contrasting with the red of the postbox.
