Odd Shot Monday meme hosted by Katney's Kaboodle AND
Mailbox Monday #16
This meme is hosted by Dallas TX, USA ~ Daily Photo but it seems to be fading away! One week the link seemed missing and I was the only participant last time!
Sighhhhhhhh
But I will continue while I have some odd mailboxes to find!
And once you really look, it's quite amazing what can be found!

I have never noticed the meme of strange mailboxes, but seeing this one makes me feel that there might be s need for one.
Only, around here they are strictly regulated in size, shape and colour :-(
More than odd, this mailbox is really CRAZY!! Loved it!!!
Is it really a mailbox!? :)
Gemma,
Good morning! I followed the link over from my blog, and it's so much fun to end up in Australia!!! Love your wornderful photos, and that's an amazing mailbox. Such fun!
I'm going to have a look around and plan to come back to visit you again.
All the best from Florida! We're having a bit of a cold snap which is unusual this early.
Thanks for coming by and hope you'll come visit me again.
XO,
Sheila ... who thinks Australia has the world's coolest animals!
A nice combination of the two themes. I'd not seen the Monday mailboxes--except here and it did not "click" with me. Maybe my mailbox with the bullet holes from when the previous owner took a potshot at her ex might fit. There was one near us with a standard mailbox, but on a pole extended some twenty feet above it is another marked "Air Mail".
Gemma, what lovely greens these are!
What a mailbox!
what an "odd" mailbox! Good one.
I don't think that one will accept regulation envelopes and certainly not packages.
Thanks for all your comments. This really is a mailbox.
Letters are delivered in Australia to mailboxes but packages and parcels need to be picked up at the post office in the metroplotian areas. A card is delivered to the mailbox to let you know it is there!
