This area of the west coast of New Zealand’s North Island clearly has a sense of humour. A little further in our travels I spy a rural letterbox that has me excitedly babbling in Himself’s ear that we need to turn around please so I can get a photograph.
Brilliant husband that he is, he obliged with just just a raised eyebrow, wondering what on earth it was this time that has us screaming to a halt.
Since he has his eyes on the road an not on quirky bits parked to the sides of it, he usually hasn’t spotted the things I do, so sometimes it’s a nice surprise for him to see what weird thing we’ve turned back for (yet again).
Usually he and the kids appreciate the humour in my “finds” although I have been guilty of getting everyone to stop on occasion for stuff that looked interesting when we raced past but wasn’t when we turned around and took a closer look.
This little beauty is defiantly worth the U-turn and if this postbox doesn’t make the local Postie smile I don’t know what would.
Art, Creativity and Humour melded firmly with Practicability… Perfect!!! This is the kind of thing the world needs a lot more of.
