Gold Post Boxes



Royal Mail has painted some of its iconic and much-loved red post boxes gold to celebrate every Team GB and Paralympics GB gold medal win during the London 2012 Olympic Games and Paralympic Games.
 
Here are four of them that I hunted down this week (thanks to Jo driving and some dodgy navigating by me).  If you want to find one yourself you can visit the Post Office site and look at the map. It helps if you live in the UK, of course!

Newent - Gloucestershire, England - Charlotte Dujardin

Trull - Somerset, England - Deborah Criddle

Hay-on-Wye - Powys, Wales (though the Post Office call it Herefordshire, England!) - Josie Pearson
Paralympic Gold medal Athletics: Womens Discus


Flint - Flintshire, Wales - Jade Jones

Welcome. I love it when visitors comment - even if it's only to say "Hi, I've been here!"
