When conducting a survey, eight out of ten cats said (meowed) that they believe it’s a Cat’s World and the other two cats were too cool for surveys. Is it a Cat’s World? #cats #allontheboard

Often mistaken for an ordinary wall box, Ludlows - often with white enamel plates - were made with wood and a cast iron frame, making them significantly cheaper for sub-postmasters at Post Offices to purchase. Prone to rot and replacement, they are becoming harder to find #postboxsaturday

Ely marketplace, on-the-spot watercolour drawing from 1998. Cathedral buildings are on the left. There is still trailer selling tea and coffee etc but that very strange hairy parasol has vanished. A lovely place a short train ride away for us and we go frequently. #Ely #watercolour #art #pleinair
