And you never hear of them getting stolen or vandalised. They come from an era of timeless design and top notch build quality.
There’s one incident that immediately comes to mind.
Just in my brief time here this morning I've already seen two Peep Show references and I'm loving it
That's like burning a swan!
They all have that space underneath (with slotted openings) in case Dangermouse needs to build a new HQ there.
Wow, that's pretty neat! Our mailboxes in the USA are fully above ground, and probably a lot smaller in capacity than yours.
Is this to stop theft?
Theft and the fact they tend to be in locations (like street corners) where cars may crash into them.
There's a really OG mailbox in my town, it's bent a full 10° towards the house it stands in front of, has classification as a historical relic and all, that has been run into by cars at least 3 times per year since cars were around.
It is still standing.
At one point (around when it got its classification), they put safety poles around it.
Until they got removed, they ended up getting replaced every year because they were all bent to hell from new accidents.
It sounds like they should have used mail boxes instead of safety poles, in the long run it would have probably saved money too.
Safety mailboxes are more durable than safety poles.
I'd imagine that's a benefit, but the design was probably for structural integrity. Last thing you want is for someone to lean on it, tipping over, and then rolling down a hill or something.
Or a bomb
Dugtrio, I choose you!
The Quackening comes to mind
It's a no from me

I'm curious to see if this does anything 😆
Edit: guess not probably because fediverse and I'm too lazy to look it up. You all get the joke.
!dontputyourdickinthat@target.server is the format
